About Croque madame

Croque Madame is a classic French dish known for its rich and indulgent flavors. It features a toasted ham and cheese sandwich made with slices of bread, typically filled with creamy béchamel sauce and Gruyère or Swiss cheese, then topped with an egg cooked sunny-side up. The name derives from its French origins, and the egg distinguishes it from the Croque Monsieur. While this dish provides protein from the ham and eggs along with calcium from the cheese, its calorie content can be high due to the use of butter and béchamel sauce. It’s traditionally enjoyed as a decadent breakfast or lunch and pairs beautifully with a fresh side salad to balance its richness. For a lighter version, whole-grain bread and reduced-fat cheese or béchamel can be used without compromising the classic flavor.
