Part French toast, part melt ... kind of an open-faced Monte Cristo sandwich ... just add a salad for a quick & easy lunch or a light dinner! The recipe comes from Canadian Living Everyday Favourites.
Ingredients:
3 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
12 slices baguette, diagonal slices, i inch thick
1 tablespoon butter
4 ounces shaved black forest ham
1/2 cup shaved parmesan cheese or 1/2 cup swiss cheese
Directions:
1. Whisk first 5 ingredients together in a shallow bowl; dip bread into egg mixture to soak well.
2. Melt half the butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat; fry half of the bread, turning once, until puffed & golden, about 5 minutes.
3. Repeat with remaining butter & bread; arrange on a rimmed baking sheet.
4. Divide ham over bread & top with cheese; broil until bubbly & melted, about 2 minutes.
