A traditional Southern dish. - This particular recipe is from my newspaper this week, and it differs from the way my Mom makes it by adding ham- I've always had it with just the turkey. And my mom substitutes Cheddar cheese for the Colby. It's a good, winter main dish for a cold weekend :) Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter |
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
2 cups milk |
hot sauce |
1 cup shredded parmesan cheese |
2 egg yolks, beaten |
1 cup shredded american cheese |
1 cup shredded colby cheese |
6 slices white bread, toasted |
sliced chicken or turkey |
sliced ham |
6 slices tomatoes |
6 slices bacon, cut in half and cooked until crisp |
paprika |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 400 degrees.
2. In a heavy 4-qt saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
3. Mix in flour until smooth.
4. Slowly add milk, stirring constantly until thickened.
5. Add hot sauce and parmesean cheese; remove from heat.
6. Place 1/2 cup of sauce in a small bowl; set remaining sauce aside.
7. Combine egg yolks with 1/2 cup of sauce, mixing well.
8. Stir egg mixture back into reserved sauce and return to heat, stirring constantly.
9. Add Colby& American cheeses; stir until melted.
10. Remove from heat.
11. Place bread slices on individual heat-resistant plates.
12. Cover bread with slices of chicken or turkey and ham.
13. Cover each serving with some of the sauce and top with a tomato slice and two pieces of the bacon.

15. Bake 10 to 15 minutes or until bubbly.
