We are getting MORE snow (already almost a foot has fallen and we've got at least 8 hours to go), and the boy was even called off work (quite possibly the first time the company has EVER closed for the winter). Since we're all snowed in, I wanted to make a hearty breakfast and decided to put the milk, eggs and bread to use! I use the basic Joy of Cooking recipe which is my absolute favorite and simple to make.
French Toast
Ingredients
2/3 cup milk
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
bread (original recipe calls for 6 slices, but I got a dozen out of my egg mixture)
butter
Directions
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in pan over medium heat.
- Whisk together milk, eggs, vanilla, sugar and salt.
- Dip bread in mixture until soggy, but not falling apart.
- Once browned on one side, flip over and brown the other side.
- If you want to keep it warm and serve all slices at once, you can put it in the oven at 200F to keep warm.
Linds loved hers (ate a slice and a half), but Luke (again) was less than thrilled with eating pieces of it. I'm wondering what his aversion to food is at the moment - he doesn't seem to like a lot of stuff we're trying. Even the boy scarfed down two slices and he isn't much of a breakfast person.

I have the same cookbook. It's definitely one of my faves (out of about 20!).
