Waffle Monte Cristos Recipe #252431
I don't recall where I got this recipe, but it's tasty and rich. Give it a try!
Note: By my estimates, the calorie count for this recipe appears much higher than it actually is. Frozen waffles, thin-sliced meats, and the cheese have fewer calories than recipezaar calculates them as having.
