Croque Madame is a classic French dish and a delightful twist on the Croque Monsieur. It consists of toasted bread layered with ham and Gruyère cheese, topped with creamy béchamel sauce, and crowned with a sunny-side-up egg. This savory sandwich is rich in flavor and indulgent in texture, making it a favorite in French café cuisine. While the dish offers protein from the ham and egg, and calcium from the cheese, it is also high in fat and calories due to the butter, béchamel sauce, and cheese. The bread adds carbohydrates, and depending on preparation, nutrients can be enhanced by using whole-grain options. Croque Madame is best enjoyed as an occasional treat or paired with a fresh salad to balance its richness.
