If you have never had a Monte Cristo Sandwich,
I feel sad for you.
One of mine and my hubby’s favorite things to eat at Disneylandis their Monte Cristo Sandwiches. These are one of the overpriced items you can get at the Blue Bayou (the restaurant in Pirates of the Carribean). It costs about $20 for the meal, which is a ton, but we sometimes splurge just cuz it’s Disneyland and that’s what you do. Fortunately, we found out that the cafe right next to Pirates sells the sandwich now, but we are unsure if it’s cheaper or not… probably cheaper… hopefully cheaper…Any way, I was able to find out how they make them and wanted to show you how it was done. I must warn you though – these babies are DEEP FRIED! Eating more than 2 may end up making you sick, but man is it worth it!!
They are sooo stinkin’ GOOD!!
