Croque Monsieur

I was unable to make a "pocket" in my bread as it was just crumbling into a mess, so I ended up just slicing the bread, forming a regular sandwich, and proceeding with with the rest of the steps. Once I got over trying to make the bread pocket, the recipe was easy to follow and turned out great. Dipping the sandwich in the egg gave it a great texture. This was a great, quick weeknight meal that we will definitely make again.

Very easy to make. Tastes really good too. www.EntertainingRecipes.org

Good, solid sandwich

A real Croque Monsieur is layered with thinly sliced ham and Swiss cheese that is lightly grilled, topped with bechamel and some shredded cheese. It is then broiled until slightly browned and bubbly. Dijon mustard is served on the side. This makes a wonderful meal with a small salad.
