Eggs in a French Toast Basket!

Mmm, fancied something special for breakfast today, so I nicked this gorgeous recipe from Christine Beauchamp at fortheloveofcookies.wordpress.com. To make the french toast, first scoop a hole out of the middle of each of two slices of bread. Mix an egg white with a tsp of vanilla and cinnamon plus a little milk in a bowl. Soak the bread in the mixture and cook in a pan or skillet on both sides. When it's almost cooked, crack an egg into the hole in each toast. I like to use a little salt in the eggs. Then continue cooking until done to your liking! I prefer the yolks a bit runny. Serve with some sugar free maple syrup or honey. Amazing!







I cooked the yolks a bit more than I meant to really! I thought they weren't qite done so I put them under the grill for a minute, but even so I like the unusual texture they turned out to be! Oh, and as you can see I used a whole egg for the toast on the left, but just the yolk for the one on the right. Just an experiment to see which I preferred.. The whole egg one was far better! And of course, eggs on toast must always be served with coffee. Decaf for me, please!

Quote from BexLife:

Heard a great quote today about healthy eating:

'When you're in a good relationship, you don't need to cheat'

It's true. What applies to loving relationships also applies to having a healthy relationship with food. If you take care of each other and fulfill each others needs you'll never have to look elsewhere for fulfillment. If you listen to your body and give it what it needs without depriving it of anything, you'll never feel the need to binge, or 'cheat'.

Happy relationships, and happy eating :)
