I love sandwiches! There is something so satisfying about an awesome sandwich. It can be whatever you want it to be. Full of meat and cheese or brimming with veggies that taste amazing. A Monte Cristo is a pretty decadent sandwich. Full of meat, cheese and then dipped in a batter and fried……this isn’t a quick snack, this is a meal. I loved this at first bite.
