I teamed up with the incredible folks over at Flatout again to bring you this easy and delicious Monte cristo sandwich.. I truly never get bored of creating ways to use my favorite flatouts, the options are endless.. Check out their store locator to see where they are available near you.. All their products are weight watcher point friendly ranging from 2-4 points each. This easy monte cristo sandwich which is great for breakfast or lunch was made using the everything fold its, one of my favorites! 5 freestyle smart points each..
Monte cristo flatout sandwich
5PP, 5 SP on blue, green & purple
Ingredients
Instructions
- In a bowl (big enough to dip your folded flatout) whisk together your egg, egg white, milk, salt and pepper and pinch of paprika.
- Spray a medium size frying pan with some non stick spray and heat on stove top over medium.
- Lay out your fold it breads and spread ½ tablespoon of your ranch dressing over each fold it.
- Place 2 oz of deli ham on each and top with 2 tablespoon of your cheese, fold sandwich over and dip thoroughly in your egg mixture.
- Cook in pan, flipping over after 5 minutes, be sure to get around your edges as well.
- Serve immediately.. Makes 2 sandwiches..
- *Updated, originally had this as 4 WW freestyle points, I was getting the flatout fold its mixed up, the 5 grain and flax I buy in the U.S are 2SP each, these everything ones are 3SP, so if using the everything fold it these are 5 smart points each on WW freestyle, the other 2 points come from the ham (1SP) and cheese (1SP)

Tried this recipe?Let us know how it was!
Amy
Gonna make it today!! I'm so excited!! Looks amazing!!!
Drizzle
Hope you enjoy it Amy 🙂
Katie
Ooh i'll have to try this with turkey! (I don't eat pork). I have asiago laughing cow cheese too. Wonder if that would bring the PP down a little?
Drizzle
Hi katie, Mmmm asiago laughing cow sounds wonderful, it might alter points slightly but not much.. Hope you enjoy it 🙂
Michele
Made these for dinner tonight and they were a huge hit! Thanks for the quick, point friendly, simple recipe.
Drizzle
Hi Michele, so glad they were enjoyed by all 🙂
Kim
That looks SO good! I wish I could find those sandwich foldouts!!
Drizzle
Did you try their store locator? Are you Canada or U.S?
Rosemary Little
This looks so yummy! I have looked in my stores and can't find the foldouts. Is there a substitute? And what kind of cheese can be substituted for the Asiago?
Drizzle
Hi, any cheese you like really.. and not sure on a substitute for the fold it, if you can find a similar wrap that is shaped more like a sandwich bun??
Jeanette
This looks great! Definitely something that appears filling! Unfortunately I'm in Germany, do you think pitas would work? The base commissaries only have so much to offer...
Drizzle
Hi Jeanette, I think you replied on my IG, yeah I would think you can try a pita or regular bread even.. 🙂
Kathy
I'll bet Pepperidge Farm Deli Flats would work ... not sure of the points but I'll bet they're comparable
Denise
Do these freeze well? I like to make all my lunches on Sunday and then grab and go during the week. Thx!
Drizzle
To be honest I have never froze them, I would like to think they would.. I you try it maybe let me know how they held up in case someone else asks.. Thanks 🙂
Holly
Made two of these last night to bring for lunch this week. Used mozzarella as I could not find shredded asiago and I'm just too lazy to shred my own (though I bet Asiago, or another stronger-tasting cheese would have tasted even better). I heated it up in the toaster oven here at work for dessert - it is just DELICIOUS!! As a WW I tend to get bored of the same old point-friendly foods. I also work 12 hour days during the week and often eat three meals at work, so anything I make on Sunday - I must be able to take to work. This will definitely be a new go-to! I also cook only for myself and I like that this recipe is only for two servings.
Drizzle
Hi Holly, I am so glad you enjoyed them and they fit good into your busy schedule 🙂
Candace
Ugh this looks incredible!! I'm going to test it out veg friendly!
Drizzle
Nice! Hope you enjoy it 🙂
Jennifer
This was AMAHHHHZING and kept me full until the next morning (no late night snacking!)
Drizzle
Yay! So glad you enjoyed it Jennifer 🙂
Lisa
Just made this for dinner tonight!! A family favourite!! My husband ate 3 of them!! Lol
Drizzle
So glad you all enjoyed them 🙂
Christie
This has become my go-to sandwich. I have even started changing it up for variations. I used a laughing cow queso and some crockpot chicken breast with a few bacon bits and a slice of Velveeta to make it extra cheesy. The variations to this sandwich are endless! Thanks for the inspiration! ❤
Christie
Sorry, I meant bacon crumbles not bits ????
Drizzle
Those all sound so yummy! So glad you enjoy it Christie 🙂
Colleen Farrell
When you dip in egg how do you count it towards smart points? I loved it. Thank you!!!
Drizzle
Hi, so one egg is 2SP, the egg whites have no points, not too sure what your asking sorry
Kiwi
I have the same question.....since you don't actually use the whole egg on one sandwich or really on 2 sandwiches, how do you "count" the 2 SP?
Drizzle
I guess that is to your discretion .. I used both the WW recipe builder and MFP to get nutri info and just used 1 egg, sure you don't use it all but I did use most of it between the 2..
Kaitlyn
Time to slim down for my wedding...tried this and can't believe how delicious it was! And very easy to take to work. Can't wait to try more of your recipes! 🙂
Drizzle
So glad you enjoyed it Kaitlyn, good luck on your journey and hope you have a beautiful wedding!! 🙂
Stefanie
I made this the other day and it was delicious! I was wondering though, mine came out a little watery. Is it supposed to be this way or did I do something wrong?
Drizzle
Hi Stefanie, I am not sure what you mean by watery.. the sandwich was watery?? If so then I'd cook longer cause no it should not be.. you want it cooking similar to how french toast would, no uncooked egg on it
Della
Hello! This looks amazing. What kind of milk did you use to keep it 6sp? Thank you!
Drizzle
Hi I use 1%, 1 Tbsp is not enough to have a point value really
Lindsay
When I put this into the recipe builder it comes out to 8 points. What am I doing wrong? I’m new to WW so still learning.
Drizzle
Hi there, could be different ingredients, different cheese brand, or meat.. or even ranch, small things can add up, I can only base it of what I used.. and I use the WW recipe builder, simple math and my fitness pal to check my points
Kathy
I was trying to follow you on weight watchers connect. I’m a new a member as if a wk ago. I can’t find you there under drizzle me skinny? Your recipes are amazing!
Drizzle
Hi Kathy, sorry I don't do connect, with my blog, Facebook and Instagram I had to draw the line somewhere so I could still keep time aside for my family, social media is very time consuming, hope you can understand.. and I hope you enjoy the recipes 🙂
Cindy
how do you get the free style points for this? per serving, the ham is 2pts, the dressing is 1.5, the flat out 2, plus the cheese??
Drizzle
Points can vary based on what brands you are using, my ham is 1, dressing 1 and cheese 1..
Holly Hopkins
Can you share the brands you use?
Drizzle
Ham is a lifestyle fat free brand I get from my local grocery store deli and I asked to see the nutri info, ranch is a light PC (canadian brand) or I'll use my zero point ranch dressing, and cheese is also a brand from my local grocery store here in Ontario, not too sure where you are located.. 20z of any lean deli ham should only be 1 point, the dressing is 1/2 Tbsp per flatout and that should only be 1 point if that, and the cheese again just 2 Tbsp per sandwich, any light cheese should only run you a point for 2 Tbsp
Karen Gebel
Made this today and it is wonderful. I added garlic powder and orgeno for some added favoring. I will make again!
Drizzle
So glad you enjoyed it Karen 🙂
Kathryn Cunningham
So good!! I needed something different and this turned out to be a great choice that was "family friendly". I used the Rosemary & Olive Oil Foldit, hmmmm all those flavors together were so good! I'll make it again, and experiment with different variations. Thanks!
Drizzle
So glad everyone enjoyed them 🙂
Drizzle
Yes, I am aware of that, this recipe was created when they had points, you can use eggs if you wish
Shannon
Is it 4 points per sandwich or is it 4 points for the whole recipe?
Drizzle
4 per sandwich
Natalie
Okay wow wow wow! This is one of the best things I’ve ever eaten ?
The flavour combo of the ranch and Asiago and ham is to die for. Thank you!
Drizzle
Awesome, I am so glad you enjoyed it Natalie 🙂
