An In A Pickle Twist on the Monte Cristo

Our jams taste good with a water cracker and on an artisan bread ... but you haven't lived until you've tried a Monte Cristo ...in a pickle style!  We take a traditional sandwich ... fluff it up Monte Cristo-ish and add our seasonal jams.

Here's how you do it...

Take two slices of a hearty artisan country bread, add a slice of turkey, a slice of Black Forest ham and a slice of Swiss cheese.  Beat a couple of eggs and 1/2 cup of milk together and dip both sides of the sandwich in the egg mixture.  Over medium heat, melt butter and cook the dipped sandwich - turning once or until the sandwich is well-browned on both sides.  Cut the sandwich diagonally and sprinkle a light snow of confectioners' sugar on top with a plop of in a pickle jam like our lemony pear vanilla bean... yummy!  This is soooo good you'll want to make a few!


And while you're delicately chomping into that hunk of love ... think about this... Fort Worth will be welcoming a SECOND Foodie Truck/Trailer Park in April and in a pickle foods will be there.  The Cowtown Chow Down will be located on Main Street between downtown and the stockyards, and we'll be servin' up some splendiferous in a pickle foods for all our peeps... there'll be many other foodie trucks there along side our fancy food trailer... check it out and save the date ...  we'll keep you posted when we are on the road.
