Brunch Weekend of May 21, 2021

Description:
Gruyere and Black Forrest ham and Dijon between two slices of grilled bread topped with mornay sauce and a fried egg. Served with potatoes Lyonnaise and a vanilla banana smoothie.
Contents:
  • One pan of sandwiches
  • One container mornay
  • One egg per sandwich
  • One pan of potatoes
  • One container smoothies
  • One banana 
Directions:
  • Sandwiches can be heated on a sheet pan in a 350 degree oven for 10-20 minutes or to desired level of meltness is achieved. Alternatively they can be heated in a lightly oiled covered fry pan on low heat for a couple minutes on each side.
  • Mornay can be heated over low on the stovetop in a saucepan until hot. 
  • Eggs can be prepared any way you like but we recommend sunny side up or basted. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a nonstick skillet over low heat until slightly shimmering. Crack eggs into the pan. For basted, cover with a tight lid. For sunny side up leave uncovered. Cook uninterrupted, until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 2 to 4 minutes. 
  • Potatoes can be heated in the 350 oven for 15-25 minutes covered. If a crispier potato is desired place on a lightly oiled sheet pan in a single layer and turn oven temperature up to 400, cook to desired doneness.
  • Smoothies are ready to drink.

Plating:

  • Sandwiches can be served on dinner plates. Pour morney over the sandwich then place the egg on top.
  • Potatoes can be served on the same plate.
  • Serve smoothie in your favorite glass. Garnish with banana if desired.
