Monte Cristo Sandwiches

Posted by Cate under Sandwiches

Recipe courtesy of Cooking Light

3 tablespoons honey mustard
8 (1-ounce) slices white bread
4 (1-ounce) slices Swiss cheese
1/4 pound thinly sliced smoked ham
1/3 cup fat-free milk
2 large egg whites (I used one whole egg)
Cooking spray
2 teaspoons powdered sugar
1/4 cup seedless raspberry jam

Spread about 1 teaspoon mustard over each bread slice. Place 1 cheese slice on each of 4 bread slices. Divide ham evenly over cheese. Cover with the remaining 4 bread slices, mustard sides down. Combine milk and egg whites in a shallow dish. Dip both sides of each sandwich into milk mixture. Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium heat. Cook sandwiches for 3 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Sprinkle each sandwich with 1/2 teaspoon sugar; top each with 1 tablespoon jam.
