This sammy is very good! I did have it for breakfast without the beer! LOL! I reduced the recipe down to one serving and added a slice of ham along with the turkey. It was simple to prepare and turned out just right. I cooked this is a very small casserole dish so the egg mixture cooked close to the sammy. This made it more of a knife and fork dish. Future plans include the beer! LOL!

We loved this. Didn't use the onion soup though. We had it for brunch and it will now be in my favorite recipe book. Thank you for the best Monte Cristo we have ever had.
