A good recipe but I've made better M.C. Sandwiches. I prefer the sandwich assembled then soaked and fried. I liked the chopped smoked turkey and honey ham combination instead of sliced ham and turkey.

Very good. I think the trick to this sandwich is finding the bread that you like. I also added a little vanilla to the egg mixture. We were out of swiss cheese, so I used a combination of sharp aged white cheddar and mozzarella.

Very good! I followed the suggestion above and substituted garlic & herb Mrs. Dash for the cinnamon & nutmeg. I also cut down on the cheese and might cut it further next time. Super easy though!

Sorry. I thought this would be great, but it was just another sandwich. Kind of bland.

This one was a huge hit with the kids. They couldn't eat the whole thing, but they raved about it. I followed the recipe exactly. I would definitely make it again.

This was good I would recommend using honey ham...I dipped each bread in as I would be make french toast then cooked one side flipped and then added ham turkey cheese and made into and sandwich and finished cooking it that way rather than dipping the whole sandwich in the egg mixture....

Sounded sketchy at first but I was sick of the same old lunch-time sandwiches. This turned out really good. My husband liked it more than I did. He pronounced it "FantAstic!!"

i have fond memories of batter dipped & fried monte cristo sandwiches but like how this one has precooked bread. i used a soft but sturdy italian bread & more cinnamon & nutmeg then what was called for. note: consider using lorraine or alpine lace swiss cheese to trim the calories & sodium level. many thanks susie!

Really, really good. It is a filling, change-of-pace sandwich. I followed the recipe exactly and really liked the cinnamon and nutmeg (as did the people I served it to). In addition, I made a dipping sauce from choke cherry jam, and that was a nice complement to the sandwich.

These were yummy. I used white bread instead of french. I also only used 2 pieces of cheese per sandwich. I had leftover turkey breast, so this was the perfect way to use it up.

I tried this recipe but we all agreed there is something missing. Wasn't easy to make... messy. And the kids turned their noses at it. I ended up taking off the french toast and "rebreading" the sandwiches.

Made the recipe like it says. I didn't like the french toast part. Although I think that it might be better if it was made more like a grilled cheese sand. Just butter the bread and brown it in the pan before adding the ham, cheese, and turkey.

these sandwiches were very good, but they might have been better with a different kind of bread... the french bread took a long time to cook & didn't cook very well on the inside. Other recipes for Monte Cristo sandwiches use white or wheat bread. Otherwise they were great. =)
