Monte Christos

Before I got married, I lived with my brother & his family for almost a year.  It was a wonderful time of learning and growing.   One of the things that has endured from that year is this recipe, which has become a family favorite!  Our kids have taken it with them and introduced it to friends across the world (who usually think its quite strange, until they taste it!), so it has become an international sensation!  I don't know where the name comes from, other than that's what Roylee called it, and it really confuses our Spanish speaking friends - but it tastes great anyway!!  It's so good, that in spite of making it several times lately, I keep failing to get a picture of it before it gets eaten!



Monte Christos

Pancake mix
Sandwich stuff (bread, mayo, mustard, ham, turkey, cheese)
Cranberry sauce


Make some pancake mix, but don't cook the pancakes just yet

Make a sandwich for each person

Dip each sandwich into the pancake mix, then set on a hot griddle to cook; flip when ready

Top with a scoop of cranberry sauce

Use the leftover pancake mix to make some pancakes or waffles & leave out with toppings for people to snack on - I promise they won't go bad before they get eaten up!!
