Let's try this again. One recipe a week for one year. Hopefully finish off a cook book. Hopefully, my meal planning and diet log will lead to a slimmer waistline, better health stats, and happier taste buds.
Its been more than three years since I started this blog. Its time resurrect this effort. First of the week of the year and I think that this will be higher on my priority list. Avoiding fast food for a few months. No sodas. Vegan for a week. Learn a new recipe each week. Dig into the recipe books I've collected for the last several months. Make Eggs Benedict. Poach an egg. Diet log for an entire month and hopefully 6. Meal plan for a month and hopefully a year. Make stuff from scratch. Ice cream for one. Cheese cake for another. Rainbow trout, too. Clam Chowdah. Carrot cake too. Be a smoothie expert. Oh yeah, cole slaw too. The Cheesecake Factory Chicken Salad sandwich too. Country fried steak.
That's enough for now.
Going back to yesterday. I will write about what I made for late night dinner last night. French Toast.
After a good session at the gym, pre-made salads weren't going to cut it. Refrigerator was bit sparse and going on a grocery in the rain at 9 am wasn't high on my list. Looked around and found ingredients.
French Toast made with French Bread
Time: 10 min (5 min prep, 10 min cooking)
Ingredients:
2 eggs
2 tablespoon of cinnamon
4 tablespoon of sugar
1/4 cup of milk
2 slabs of butter
Syrup
Equipment
Bowl
Spatula
Frying Pan
Directions:
Preheat frying pan. Add butter to pan. Place 2 eggs, cinnamon, sugar in bowl and mix well. Place slices of bread into mixture for a minute or two on each side. Afterwards, place soaked slices in frying pan. For me, 2 eggs made well for 4 slices of French toast. Cook each side for a 2 to 3 minutes on each side. I liked to add more add a teaspoon of sugar (perhaps powdered sugar, if available) and a teaspoon of cinnamon while cooking. I've got a sweet tooth. Plate the French toast and have at it. I like to have the syrup on the side. I prefer to have French Toast crispy wen eating. Some people prefer to add strawberries when available. Enjoy! Pictures to follow.
