Cooking sandwiches in the waffle iron may be one of our favorite things. It doubles as a panini press, if you will humor that idea.
We love the idea of a Monte Cristo sandwich. It’s basically a French toast sandwich. If that doesn’t scream stoner food, we don’t know what does. But take this awesome invention and cook it in a waffle iron?! Come on man. This sandwich is savory, sweet, and full of flavor. And now, because we hate finding recipes and then scrolling for 10 minutes before we actually get to the recipe, here it is. But first, pictures.

3 slices of turkey, and 1 slice of swiss cheese and the top piece of bread. - In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and flour.
