# How to Make It:

Take two bread slices and put 2 ham pieces, 2 turkey pieces, and 2 Swiss cheese pieces between them for each sandwich.
02 -
Lightly push down on the sandwiches and cut off the edges if you want.
03 -
Beat eggs, milk, salt, and pepper together in a flat bowl.
04 -
Put butter in a big pan and let it melt on medium fire.
05 -
Drop each sandwich into the egg mix, making sure both sides get totally wet.
06 -
Throw the wet sandwiches in the pan and cook until they turn golden on each side, about 3-4 minutes per side.
07 -
Move the cooked sandwiches to a plate lined with paper towels.
08 -
Sprinkle some icing sugar on top before eating. Cut from corner to corner and serve them hot with red berry jam on the side.
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Go for chunky bread slices that won't get mushy when soaked in the egg stuff.
02 -
Try swapping in some sliced beef or chicken if you want something different.
03 -
You can use strawberry jam or even some maple syrup instead of the red berry jam.
04 -
For extra flavor inside, spread a thin layer of mayo or mustard on the bread before adding your meats and cheese.
