Croque monsieur bake

By Bianca Strydom

Serves 2 - 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cooking Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

1 x 400 ml sachet Woolworths béchamel sauce
500 g leftover gammon, cubed or sliced
3 leftover bread, cubed
100 g Emmenthaler cheese, grated
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
honey, for serving
chives, to garnish

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Spoon the béchamel sauce onto a large ovenproof serving platter, top with the gammon, bread and cheese, season and bake until golden brown and bubbling. Drizzle with honey and garnish with chives. If you like, serve with soft-boiled eggs and hot coffee.
