Saturday Morning French Toast

This has to be one of my favourite breakfast items. It was a very much missed items from my diet when I started on this gluten-free journey. That was until I discovered Lorenzo's white bread worked out perfectly for this classic recipe.  

White bread slices

eggs

milk

cinnamon sugar

butter

If I didn't have to work today I would have thrown in some grated orange zest and triple sec. None-the-less this satisfied my Saturday morning craving for French toast.  

Wingin' It!

The best meals are those that you just wing it and use what you have on hand. Breakfast is the perfect time to wing it. I just check what I have on hand and throw it all in, like this morning's breakfast.  

 eggs

marinated artichoke hearts, chopped

gluten-free sliced ham (found at Costco)

yellow pepper, chopped

Italian seasoning

sea salt

freshly cracked black pepper

splash of milk

crumbled Feta cheese

Use whatever ingredients that you have, just do it!  

Lasagna

It is the long-weekend here and if you're not out at the lake you should be firing up the Bar-B-Que this weekend. But I'm not doing either of those things. I need to stock up on lasagna. They're perfect for work lunches.  

Lean ground beef

Spicy Italian sausage

Tomato sauce

diced tomatoes

basil

black pepper

white balsmaic vinegar

gluten-free lasagna noodles

ricotta cheese

egg

spinach

parmesan cheese

mozzarella cheese

Happy Mother's Day!

Mama R's favourite salad is Salad Nicoise making this an easy decision for Mother's Day eats. And there is Crab Quiche in the oven too.  

Happy Mother's  Day to all!
