Sundays are great for relaxing breakfasts...
This morning we took it easy and decided to get caught up on some French Open coverage. So while we watched tennis I decided to make French Toast...
No I did not plan it that way...
The thing is I've discovered how versatile Greek Yogurt can be. Its a newer ingredient that is finding its way into more recipes and I've incorporated it into more of mine.
And since I wanted to make French Toast with no cream cheese I decided to use some 0% Greek Yogurt and homemade strawberry jam as the filling. It was a healthier option to the traditional stuffed french toast and perfect for a lazy Sunday morning.
Stuffed French Toast
(Makes about 2 servings)
4 slices (1 inch) french bread
3 eggs
1 cup 0% Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup Strawberry Jam
Mix the yogurt and jam together in a bowl. Spread mixture generously between two slices and make a sandwich. In a separate bowl beat the eggs. Dip the sandwich on both sides in the egg mixture. Place in a heated frying pan on medium for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
i love this - brilliant!
ReplyDeleteThat's an awesome idea. You get the lovely creaminess but with a whole lot less calories. Mmmm, this will have me eating French toast a whole lot more often now that there's less guilt. ;)
