A healthier Monte Cristo sandwich

Have you ever had a Monte Cristo sandwich? image of a Monte Cristo sandwich Is there a healthier version of the traditional one? This IS one delicious sandwich, filled with ham, cheese, turkey, mustard...and deep fried french bread style. When served with raspberry jam on the side you just close your eyes and pure bliss envelops you as you eat it.

I indulge in this maybe once a year and only when eating out as I've never tried doing it at home. Not until I stumbled upon a version of this recipe that's baked instead of deep fried and it looks just as yummy! You'll find the recipe at http://www.recipezaar.com/82119, submitted by chef Rita. Several folks have tried this recipe and posted their comments there on how good it was. If you make it, write in and let me know how you like it.
