This is a simple, easy, and yummy recipe. I used cream cheese instead of mayo and added ham. I thought the cream cheese would taste better with the jam. I made it for my family and they loved it!

This recipe was quick, easy, lighter than some restaurant versions and I had most of the ingredients on-hand. I love monte cristos but cannot find a restaurant, in the area I recently moved to, with this sandwich on the menu. When I started craving it the other day, I almost drove 70 miles just to get one! I'm so glad the FN website exists:.

I used chicken breast (no sliced turkey and my husband commented with a ummm! when he bit into it. First time to use gouda...like it. Only complaint is I seemed to have way too much egg mixture.

I have always loved the Monte Cristo at Bennigans and this is a great made at home alternative. I made it with only one layer and have tried it also with ham, swiss, and cheddar....very good!!! I would highly recommend this one. I served it with some strawberry preserves because that is what I had with a little powdered sugar on top. Definitely a hit!!

This sandwich is so easy to make and so good to eat it's makes me look like a great cook. I use a combination of ham and turkey, smoked gouda and fontina. The 'scraps' from trimming the edges are a treat to snack on. I put them in a ziplock bag and they quickly disappear.

I made this because I had a half of a ham left over in the freezer and wanted to use it. I used ham and havardi and muenster cheese, OH my sooo good this way! I served it with strawberry jam and dusted the top of the sandwich with powdered sugar! I also used french slices of bread. Remember a recipe is just a guide! Use what you have at home and what you like!

I started craving this when I watched the episode on television, and I finally made it 3 months later. It is wonderful! I used provolone in place of the gouda, and it was still great.

The glorious Monte Cristo is an all-time favorite of the husband, and boy is he picky! He ate these up, thank goodness. Usually calls for powdered sugar as a French Toast tribute. Recipe was clear and simple.
