Last weekend I made a French toast for the bridal shower lunch. I love this recipe because it’s so easy (Fia could make it herself), inexpensive (the most expensive ingredient was the $2 Texas Toast), and oh so delicious! The best part is that it’s made the day before, so there’s no problem the day you eat it….perfect for a Sunday afternoon or brunch. This food post will be step by step as I take you through the whole recipe with me… as I like to make my own tweeks and people get angry at me for not telling them EXACTLY what I did.
