List of Ingredients




16 slices firm-textured sliced bread
Dijon mustard
12 ounces sliced smoked ham
12 ounces sliced Swiss cheese
12 ounces sliced roasted turkey breast
8 large eggs
1 cup milk
Salt to taste
Cayenne pepper


Recipe



Spread one side of each slice of bread with some of the mustard. Top four of the slices of bread with some of the ham, cheese, and turkey. Top each with 1 slice of the remaining bread, pressing down to form 4 compact sandwiches.
In a shallow bowl, whisk 4 large eggs with the 1/2 cup milk and salt and cayenne pepper to taste.

Dip each sandwich on both sides into the batter, coating it well.

Spray a griddle with cooking spray, heat to a medium temperature, and add the sandwiches to each hot surface. Cook for 4 minutes, turn with a spatula, and cook 4 minutes more, or until golden brown. (Use the back of the spatula to press each sandwich down as a way of melting the cheese.)

Cut the sandwiches in half on the diagonal and serve warm.

Yields: 8 sandwiches
