I've made this sandwich several times now and it's always a hit with my family and friends. It's a great way to use up leftover ham and cheese.

This sandwich was delicious! The French toast was perfectly cooked and the ham and cheese were melted and gooey. I will definitely be making this again.

This sandwich was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still good. I would make it again, but I would use less butter.

This sandwich was a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less butter.

I had a hard time getting the French toast to cook evenly. The outside was crispy but the inside was still doughy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This sandwich was a bit too rich for my taste. The French toast was too sweet and the cheese was a bit too strong. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a different type of bread and cheese.

I was a little hesitant to try this sandwich because I'm not a big fan of French toast, but I'm so glad I did! The combination of the sweet French toast with the savory ham and cheese was amazing. I will definitely be making this again.

I've made this sandwich several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The key is to use good quality ingredients, especially the bread and cheese. I also like to add a bit of Dijon mustard to the sandwich for some extra flavor.

This Monte Cristo sandwich was a hit with my family! The combination of ham, cheese, and French toast was perfect, and the powdered sugar on top added a nice touch of sweetness. I will definitely be making this again.
