Make an egg batter using 2-4 Eggs and a good splash of milk. Combine with a fork or whisk and then dip your sandwiches in the egg batter. Place sandwich in pan and cook like you would French toast. You can also place sandwiches in the oven for a few minutes if you find the cheese isn't melted all the way through.
