A great sandwich for game day, brunch, lunch or a weeknight dinner! This sandwich is cheesy and delicious right out of the oven.
By Tara Noland
The recipe itself had already been adapted from an Italian Layer Bake so this sandwich is extremely versatile. You can make it how you like. On our first attempt, we found the sandwich was too moist and left it soggy, so we omitted some of the tomatoes and dried the ones out that we used with a little salt and drained them on paper towels. You can omit them completely if you like. The eggs form a custard inside the sandwich and the top is crispy and golden browned to form this gorgeously gooey sandwich.
The sandwich is baked in parchment so you can easily pull it out of the baking dish to then slice and serve! Think of all the variations you can do with this amazing recipe. It is really quite endless and so very easy! 
Try this sandwich on for size at your next function or for a casual dinner. Change it up to what you like inside or try our version. Anyway you slice it (pun intended) you will love it!!

Ingredients
- 8 oz (227g) package crescent rolls
- 8 oz (227g) slices smoked turkey
- 8 oz (227g) slices ham
- 3 oz (85g) sliced gruyere or swiss cheese

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Take the crescent roll from the package, unroll and separate into two even squares. Line the bottom of an 8 inch (20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper. Place in the one square of crescent dough, pressing the dough to fit the pan. Spread with the grainy mustard.
- Layer in half of the turkey, ham, and cheese. Salt and pepper to taste. Pour half the eggs over top. Repeat the layers, then add the tomatoes on top. Pepper to taste.
- Top with the remaining dough and pour the remaining eggs on top.
- Bake for 30 minutes covered with foil, and then another 10-15 minutes with the foil off.
- Let sit for 15-20 minutes before removing from pan.
Notes
- Salting and draining the tomato slices helps prevent the sandwich from becoming soggy.
- Ensure the oven is preheated to 350°F (177°C) for proper baking.
- Allow the baked sandwich to sit for 15-20 minutes after baking before removing it from the pan to help it set and prevent it from falling apart.

Frequently Asked Questions
What can I do if my sandwich is too moist?
If your sandwich turns out too moist, try reducing the amount of tomatoes or drying them with salt and draining on paper towels before adding them.
Can I use a different type of cheese for this sandwich?
Yes, you can substitute different types of cheese based on your preference, but make sure they melt well to achieve that gooey texture.

To get a crispy and golden-brown top, ensure that you bake the sandwich until the custard is set and the top is nicely browned, which may require adjusting the baking time.
