WAFFLED MONTE CRISTOS
My husband and I enjoy Monte Cristos so much that I created this non-fried version to cut down on fat. The addition of orange peel and pecans makes these beautiful sandwiches absolutely delicious! -Mary Shivers, Ada, Oklahoma

[email protected]I thought these sandwiches were just okay. The waffles were a little too thick and the filling was a bit dry. I probably won't make them again.
