Is French Toast really a French dish??

French toast...who came up with French toast? Is it really something French people eat? Can it really be considered "toast" since it wasn't placed in the toaster? Maybe I should use my Swagbucks toolbar and ask a few of these questions...ha! Inquiring minds want to know, well ok I want to know :)! Well whoever thought up French toast was a genius! A pure genius!

Wee-one LOVES French toast and that might be an understatement. I use to always make French toast on Sunday mornings but have kind of gotten out of that routine. Now I make it occasionally on Breakfast for Supper Wednesdays (and still some Sunday mornings). Wee-one actually prefers his French toast without syrup...SHOCKER I KNOW! Especially after his discovery of syrup on pancakes a few weeks back. He does like butter on there though. I made bacon last night too and didn't think Wee-one would try it. He tried it and LOVED that too!! I served up some of our homemade applesauce and he willingly tried 2 bites and was done. I was happy he tried it. So of course last nights supper was a success.

Here is my recipe for French toast:

French Toast:

7 pieces of bread
3 eggs
Milk
1 tsp. vanilla
Cinnamon

In a bowl whisk eggs and milk together. I usually just "dump" my milk in. I like my egg mixture to be a little less eggy and more milky. It's a personal preference so feel free to add as much milk as you want. Add vanilla to egg/milk mixture. Beat together. Pour on a plate. Sprinkle cinnamon on egg/milk mixture. Dip bread into egg wash. Soak both sides. Feel free to add more cinnamon as you go along dipping the bread. Place soaked bread on a skillet. Brown both sides. Serve with butter and syrup.

Super easy and super delicious! I love the touch of vanilla in there and I usually just dump that in there too..no measuring. This recipe can be adapted to you and your families tastes. ENJOY!

Tonight we are having Creamy Corn Chowder and Grilled Cheese. I am excited to try this recipe out. It's another new one and one I think everyone is going to enjoy.

I was off work today and was able to clean my house really really good. I hope to keep it clean for at least today...sometimes that's a job in itself! Wee-one went to daycare to play with his friends (and I'm sure he had a lot more fun there then here with me cleaning). He's napping now and I might do the same...ha! Recipe of the Corn Chowder to come tomorrow :)! Have a great afternoon!
