' Eggs every morning for breakfast tends to get boring rather quickly in our house. I’m always looking for inspiration and ideas to liven things up. This morning, when I was thinking about what I needed to put together my daughter’s lunch, an idea came to me. The kids love waffles. They also love Monte Cristo sandwiches. Why not combine the two?
I did, and they loved it.
Monte Cristo Waffles
Preheat your waffle iron.
For each “waffle”, you’ll need to make a ham and cheese sandwich. Use your favorite ham and cheese, maybe put a little bit of mustard on it. Other toppings, like tomato, lettuce, etc., probably wouldn’t work too well.
Make your egg mixture. For 3 sandwiches, I beat together 2 eggs, a splash of milk, and a bit of salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Once you’ve got your sandwich made, dip each side of the sandwich in the egg mixture. Place the sandwich in the waffle iron and cook according to the directions for making waffles. They’re done when the sandwich is golden brown.
We didn’t eat them with butter and syrup, but I suppose you could if you wanted to.
