Yum! I have always loved Monte Cristo sandwhichs but they are hard to find at resturants now and way to fatty since they are deep fried. I used the crescent rolls that are not cut up, I forgot to put the butter and honey glaze on the dough before cooking it, but it still turned out yummy. Just have to really watch this in the oven, atleast I found with my gas stove it cooked faster then the time said it would. My husband who looked at me like I was crazy putting a sandwhich in front of him with raspberry jam in it, loved it.

The recipe for, "Crescent Cristo Sandwich Loaf", is an introduction to the "Monte Cristo" a true French Sandwich! It is delicious as a sandwich.

I was a little suspicous of this recipe when I first read it, but it was wonderful! My husband and I loved the great flavor and ease of making this recipe! I even thought the jam was a nice addition to it. I will make this one again!
