In Paris, it looked more like mine (and the movie) but the cheese was very, very different tasting. In Versailles, it came rolled up and was awful because all you tasted was the bread as the rest of the ingredients was squeezed out during the roll. I definitely preferred the American-ized version shown in the movie! :) Thank you for following along! xoJanethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17283941721180439222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4258199394802214950.post-19075531487626434492021-06-20T01:19:08.378-04:002021-06-20T01:19:08.378-04:00Forgot to say that I ordered it because of It'...Forgot to say that I ordered it because of It's Complicated. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13762522386350165818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4258199394802214950.post-37260822865476627442021-06-20T01:14:01.799-04:002021-06-20T01:14:01.799-04:00Looks delicious.

I LOVE the movie and watched it again today, and was inspired to make my first croque monsieur! I am a vegetarian so I used veggie ham, and I also didn't use gruyere. Instead I used parm, and Trader Joe's "Unexpected cheddar." YUM My daughter and husband went crazy...so crazy that tomorrow for dinner, I may just make croque madame!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11785155946840721258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4258199394802214950.post-21184205959141876482013-05-28T19:45:22.075-04:002013-05-28T19:45:22.075-04:00I am totally there with you...love love love the h...I am totally there with you...love love love the house, food, and the garden.

I usually make this at least once when I have left over ham. My dish is called Ham Mornay after the same dish on the menu in a little restaurant I used to go to in New York on market trips...La Fondue. I don't think it is there anymore but it was on 52nd or 53rd between 6th and 7th Avenues. A wonderful Sangria accompanied it. I made my own version last night with apple cider, apples, mulling spices and oranges...a great meal. I do enjoy your blog and wish the best for you and your family in 2012.uadamphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03427141354069265667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4258199394802214950.post-14173738903398186762012-01-01T14:37:16.490-05:002012-01-01T14:37:16.490-05:00Oh that looks so, so good!
