Easy Monte Cristo Sandwiches

Ingredients

• 3 T. Dijon mustard
• 2 boxes of 6 count frozen French toast
• 1 9 oz. pkg. thinly sliced ham
• 1 9 oz. pkg. thinly sliced turkey or chicken
• 12 slices Swiss cheese
• 3 T. mayonnaise, if desired
• 6 T. butter, at room temperature
• Maple syrup, for serving, if desired

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Spread mustard on 6 pieces of the French toast. Divide the ham and turkey evenly among them then top each with 2 slices of the cheese.
3. Spread the remaining 6 pieces of French toast with the mayonnaise and put the sandwich together.
4. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Spread ½ tablespoon of the butter on the top and bottom of each sandwich.
5. Cook 3 sandwiches in the skillet until brown, 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches.
6. Transfer to oven and bake until the cheese is melted and the toast is heated through, about 4 minutes.
7. Serve with maple syrup, if desired.
8. Serves 4
9. Note: a large griddle instead of a skillet would make this faster and easier.
