Ingredients

  • 12 lices white bread
  • ¼ cup seedless strawberry jam
  • 12 lices ham
  • 4 ounces melting cheese (Eden or Velveeta), cut into ¼-inch x 3-inch strips
  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 1 ½ cups bread crumbs
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • canola oil

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. With a knife, trim edges of the bread and with a rolling pin, flatten until very thin.
  2. Spread a thin layer of jam on the top side of the bread slice.
  3. Arrange a piece of ham over the jam and place cheese strip at the edge of the bread.
  4. Roll bread into a log to enclose filling and press lightly on seams to completely seal. Secure with toothpicks, if needed, and remove when ready to dredge in bread crumbs.
  5. Repeat with remaining bread slices.
  6. In a bowl, combine eggs and milk and whisk together until well beaten. In a shallow dish, combine bread crumbs and Italian seasoning.
  7. Dip bread rolls in egg mixture and roll in bread mixture, patting down crumbs to fully coat.
  8. In a wide, thick-bottomed pan over medium heat, heat about 2-inches deep of oil. Carefully place breaded rolls seam side down and fry, turning on sides as needed, until golden and crunchy.
  9. Remove from pan and drain on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Serve hot.

Notes

  • To help the breading stick and keep the cheese from leaking out during frying, arrange breaded rolls in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze for a few minutes.
