The ultimate quick and healthy homemade breakfast!

The Turks and Caicos is one of my favorite vacation spots. Here’s why: white sandy beaches, turquoise colored water, and . . . French toast. That’s right, French toast. Every morning our resort served the most delicious homemade French toast. I begged them for their recipe and here it is. The key is to use a shallow dish and soak the bread in the egg mixture until most of it is absorbed. I like to use whole-wheat cinnamon raisin bread. Pepperidge Farms makes one that is only 80 calories per slice (I don’t work for them!). Simply drizzle on some pure maple syrup and fresh berries, and breakfast is served! For more healthy breakfast recipes like Lean Eggs and Ham Casserole, No-Mess Bacon, and Revved-Up Oatmeal check out my iTunes app Time to Eat Healthy!
