Japanese Chain



While we were at Disneyland last week we shared a meal at the Blue Bayou. I can recommend everything on their menu except the Monte Cristo . I’m told it’s their most popular item. It may have something to do with the fact that it goes for roughly $10 less than everything else. Here’s my version, which I hope is a little better:

 Monte Cristo Sandwich
2 slices whole wheat bread
1 tsp mayo
1 tsp prepared mustard
2 thin slices deli ham
 2 thin slices roast turkey breast
1 slice Swiss cheese
1 egg
1/2  cup skim milk
Powdered sugar
Grape jelly
Spread one side of bread with condiments. Alternate layers of meat and cheese. Slice sandwich in half diagonally. Beat egg and milk in a small bowl. Dip sandwich halves in mixture. Brown both sides on a greased griddle at medium heat. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve with grape jelly.

  1. Thank you. Now if only I could duplicate the banjo, the Spanish moss, and the fireflies winking in the twilight.
