Hee hee hee hee, Happy Halloween Eve!

Are you ready for some treats?

Step into my kitchen web

and let’s get cackling   cooking!

These Monte Cristo Biscuits are full of sweet and savory flavors

Ham, turkey, cheese, a little sweet strawberry jam and savory mustard

Once you assemble the biscuits, you can dip them in an egg milk mixture and cook them in a skillet like french toast

Or put them in a casserole dish with beaten eggs and milk

and bake them

Cut into squares to serve

Sprinkle with powdered sugar

The cheese melts into the egg custard and everything oozes out and makes your mouth very happy!

No tricks here, just treats!

Use any flavor of jam or preserves

Wrap them individually and freeze extras for grab and go breakfasts later
