Why it's guilt-free

A classic croque monsieur is ham, cheese and a rich white sauce. Mine keeps the crunch and the cheese, and skips the rest.

No béchamel

No butter-and-flour sauce. My secret crust does the heavy lifting.

No ham

Something fresher stands in, and nobody misses it.

All the flavor

Crispy, cheesy, fresh and creamy in every bite.

What you'll get

  • The full Croque Chef Marian recipe, step by step
  • My trick for a crust that sticks to the bread, not the pan
  • How thin to slice everything (hint: almost see-through)
