Girl, let me tell you about this breakfast recipe that’s been making waves in my kitchen! As a busy mom who’s always on the go, I’ve perfected this mouthwatering breakfast sandwich that’ll make you feel like you’re eating at a fancy brunch spot – but in your PJs! 😉
This crispy, cheesy, and absolutely divine Breakfast Monte Cristo is what dreams are made of, honey! Trust me, your family will be begging for seconds.
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 4 thick slices of brioche bread
– 4 slices of ham
– 4 slices of turkey
– 4 slices of Swiss cheese
– 2 large eggs
– 1/3 cup milk
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– Butter for grilling
– Powdered sugar for dusting
– Maple syrup for serving
– A pinch of salt
– And most importantly, your appetite!
Now, let’s get cooking, bestie!
1. First, assemble your sandwiches by layering ham, turkey, and Swiss cheese between two slices of brioche. Don’t be shy with that cheese, girl – we’re not counting calories today!
1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. This is basically like French toast batter, but make it fancy!
1. Melt a generous pat of butter in a skillet over medium heat. And when I say generous, I mean GENEROUS. This isn’t the time to hold back!

1. Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are well-coated. Let any excess drip off – we want decadent, not soggy!
1. Place your sandwich in the hot skillet and cook until golden brown on both sides (about 3-4 minutes per side). The cheese should be all melty and gorgeous!
1. Here’s my secret tip: cover the skillet with a lid for the last minute to ensure that cheese gets extra gooey. You can thank me later!
1. Dust with powdered sugar (like it’s snowing in your kitchen!), and serve with warm maple syrup on the side.
Y’all, this sandwich is giving main character energy! It’s crispy on the outside, warm and melty on the inside, and that sweet-and-savory combo? _chef’s kiss_
The best part? It takes less than 15 minutes to make, which means you can sleep in a little longer. Because we all know beauty sleep is important, right? 😉
