Montecristococktail Recipes

Steps:

• Spread bread with mayonnaise and mustard. Alternate ham, Swiss and turkey slices on bread.
• Beat egg and milk in a small bowl. Coat the sandwich with the egg and milk mixture. Heat a greased skillet over medium heat, brown the sandwich on both sides. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Make the French toast: Whisk together the eggs, milk and vanilla in a medium bowl until smooth. Place the bread slices in the bowl of egg mixture and coat both sides. Heat 2 skillets (each large enough to hold 2 slices of bread) over medium heat. Add half of the butter to each. When the butter begins to foam and brown slightly on the edges, arrange 2 slices of bread in each skillet. Cook until the undersides have browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn the slices over and cook for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, reducing the heat to medium-low if the bread is browning too quickly. Transfer the French toast to a plate and let cool slightly. Wipe out the skillets. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cook the sandwiches: Return the skillets to medium heat and add about 1 tablespoon butter to each. Allow the butter to melt and froth, swirling to coat the bottoms of the skillets. Divide the eggs between the skillets and spread evenly on the bottoms. Arrange two slices of the French toast, slightly apart, in each skillet. Cook, shaking the skillets a little bit so the eggs don't stick, until the eggs on the bottom of the skillet sear and firm up, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Finish: Divide and spread the remaining butter on the tops of the 4 slices of French toast. Slide a spatula underneath the eggs and flip everything over so the buttered French toast slices are now on the bottoms of the skillets. Season with salt. Layer on top of one piece of French toast per skillet with the cheese, ham and turkey. Slide the spatula under one slice of the French toast and fold it over the other so it looks like a sandwich! Repeat with the second skillet. Transfer the skillets to the oven until the cheese melts and the centers get hot, about 3 minutes.
• Transfer the sandwiches to a cutting board and cut each in half. Serve two halves on each plate with maple syrup for drizzling and dunking.

Steps:

• Pour coffee into large mug.
• Add alcohols.
• Stir.
• Top with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Heat a large griddle or cast-iron skillet over medium heat.
• Prepare the sandwiches by spreading 4 slices of the bread with preserves. Top with a slice of cheese, 2 slices of folded prosciutto, then another slice of cheese. Spread the remaining bread slices with Dijon and set in place over the cheese.
• In a large shallow bowl, beat the eggs with the milk or cream, Parmesan, and parsley. Nest the butter in a paper towel and wipe it across the hot pan. Dip the sandwiches into the egg mixture and cook the sandwiches until deep golden, about 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
• Toss the arugula with the lemon juice, extra-virgin olive oil, and salt and pepper, to taste, in a large serving bowl. Cut the sandwiches from corner to corner and serve alongside the salad.

Steps:

• Spread 3 bread slices with mayo; top with cheese, ham, turkey and remaining bread slices to make 3 sandwiches.
• Beat eggs and milk in shallow dish until blended.
• Melt butter in large skillet on medium heat. Dip sandwiches, 1 at a time, into egg mixture, turning to evenly moisten both sides of each sandwich with egg mixture.
• Add to skillet; cook 2 min. on each side or until sandwiches are golden brown on both sides. Transfer to plate.
• Sift sugar over sandwiches. Serve with jelly.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F.
• Fill bread slices with 2% Milk Singles and ham.
• Beat egg whites and milk in shallow dish or pie plate. Dip each sandwich into egg mixture, turning to coat both sides (let bread soak about 5 sec. on each side). Place sandwiches on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray.
• Bake 6 min.; turn. Bake 5 min. or until sandwiches are golden brown.

Steps:

• To make the jam, combine apple, jalapeño, chiles, sugar, vinegar, salt, and 3 Tbsp. water in a small saucepan or pot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to medium-low. Cook at a low simmer, stirring every so often, until most of the liquid has cooked off and apples are soft, 25 to 30 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring frequently and mashing apples with a wooden spoon or potato masher, until apples have completely broken down and mixture has thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• In a wide, low dish, combine eggs, milk, and a pinch of kosher salt. Whisk until very well combined, then set aside.
• To assemble the sandwiches, spread a heaping tablespoon of jam on all four slices of bread. On two slices, layer half the grated cheese (or one slice), two slices ham, and then the remaining cheese. Top with the other slices of bread. Compress each sandwich slightly.
• Working one at a time, place the assembled sandwiches in the dish of beaten egg. Let the bread soak up the egg for 30 seconds, then flip and repeat on the other side. Repeat with the remaining sandwich, transferring the soaked sandwiches to a separate plate.
• Heat butter and olive oil in a large nonstick pan over medium-high until melted. Add sandwiches; cook 2-3 minutes per side, pressing down slightly, until browned and crisp. Transfer to a cutting board to halve before serving.

Steps:

• Heat 5 inches of oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C). While oil is heating, make the batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg and water. Combine the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper; whisk into the egg mixture until smooth. Set aside in the refrigerator.
• Assemble sandwiches by placing one slice of turkey on one slice of bread, a slice of ham on another, then sandwich them with the Swiss cheese in the middle. Cut sandwiches into quarters, and secure with toothpicks.
• Dip each sandwich quarter in the batter so that all sides are coated. Deep fry in the hot oil until golden brown on all sides. Remove toothpicks and arrange on a serving tray. Dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving.

Steps:

• Arrange 4 bread slices on work surface. Spread each with 1/2 tablespoon mustard. Top each with 1/4 of cheese, then 1/4 of ham, folding to fit. Spread 1 tablespoon quince paste on each of remaining 4 bread slices; place bread, paste side down, atop ham.
• Beat eggs in pie dish until well blended. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in each of 2 large skillets over medium-low heat. Working with 1 sandwich at a time, hold sandwiches tightly closed and dip into beaten eggs to coat on all sides. Place 2 sandwiches in each skillet. Cover and cook until bottoms are golden, about 4 minutes. Turn sandwiches over. Cover and cook until bottoms are golden, cheese is melted, and egg coating is cooked through, about 4 minutes longer.
