Monte Cristo Sandwiches

8 slices white bread
4 T. butter or margarine, softened
2 T. prepared mustard
4 slices Swiss cheese, halved
8 oz. sliced cooked turkey
4 slices ham
3 eggs
1/3 c. milk
1/2 tsp. salt
1 c. cranberry-orange relish (from a jar)

     Spread bread with 2 T. butter and the mustard. Top 4 slices with half-slice cheese, a fourth of the turkey, another half-slice cheese. Cover with remaining bread, buttered side down. Cut each sandwich into two triangles. In a shallow dish, beat eggs, milk and salt with a fork. Dip both sides of each sandwich in egg mixture, letting excess drip off. In large skillet, melt the remaining 2 T. butter over medium heat. Add sandwiches without crowding and cook about 3 minutes per side or until golden. Serve hot with relish, stirred to soften, for a dip.
