The Ultimate French Toast



Every Saturday my husband and I go to breakfast with his parents, brother and wife, so on Sunday we cook breakfast at home. We do anything from a simple bowl of cereal or oatmeal to Belgian waffles and scrambles. This Sunday we took it a little further and did a cross between French toast and my all time favorite Sammie, a Monte Cristo. Wow... this had to have been the best breakfast Sammie/French toast I have ever had. I really hope you decide to give this one a try at your house on Sunday morning; it will be a big hit.


4 – Slices Texas Toast
4 – Slices Canadian Bacon
4 – Slices Monterey Jack Cheese
1 – Egg
½ C. - Refrigerated Nondairy French Vanilla Creamer

On four slices of the toast place two pieces of bacon and two pieces of cheese, top with the other slice of toast. In a shallow bowl mix the egg and creamer together, dip one at a time the Sammie’s into the egg mixture. On a hot griddle coated with cooking spray cook the French toast on each side for 2-3 minutes or until cheese is melted and the Sammie is golden brown. Sprinkle with powder sugar if desired; serve with your favorite jelly or jam.

This was a favorite sandwich of mine growing up. I used to order it at a restaurant we used to go to for dinner.

Thanks for the memory!!
