EGGS AND SAVORY FRENCH TOAST WITH CHEESE AND ASPARAGUS
Use up that old bread and have breakfast for dinner with this great savory dish. I made this dish when my boyfriend had his teeth pulled and could only eat egg-based, soft dishes. This was delicious but also easy on the teeth!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 1-quart baking dish with 1 teaspoon butter.
- Arrange bread slices in a single layer in the baking dish.
- Whisk milk, 1 egg, nutmeg, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Pour over bread slices. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top. Let stand until milk mixture is absorbed, 15 to 30 minutes. Dot remaining 2 teaspoons butter over Parmesan cheese.
- Toss asparagus with olive oil in a bowl. Spread on a baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper.
- Bake bread slices in the preheated oven until puffed up, about 10 minutes. Place asparagus in the oven. Continue baking bread slices until golden brown, about 10 minutes more.
- Fill a large saucepan with 2 to 3 inches of water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low to bring water to a gentle simmer.
- Crack 1 egg into a small bowl then gently slip egg into the simmering water, holding the bowl just above the surface of water. Repeat with the remaining egg. Cook eggs until the whites are firm and the yolks have thickened but still runny, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Remove the eggs from the water with a slotted spoon.
- Divide bread between 2 plates. Top each portion with a poached egg. Season with salt and pepper. Serve asparagus on the side.

Steps:
- Put a baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 250 degrees F. Whisk 4 eggs, the milk, 1/4 cup cheese, the parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a baking dish; set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook, flipping, until crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels; reserve the drippings in the skillet.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in another large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the bread to the egg mixture and let soak, turning once, about 1 minute. Add 4 of the bread slices to the skillet and sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon cheese. Cook until golden on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Flip, sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon cheese and cook until golden and the cheese on the bottom is crisp, about 2 minutes. Flip again and cook until the cheese melts, about 1 more minute. Transfer to the baking sheet to keep warm and repeat with the remaining bread and cheese.
- Heat the skillet with the pancetta drippings over medium heat. Crack the remaining 4 eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites are set, about 3 minutes. Divide the French toast among plates and top with the fried eggs. Toss the arugula in a bowl with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Add to the plates. Drizzle with the vinegar and season with pepper.
FRENCH TOAST EGGS
I thought of the concept weeks ago, but tried it out for the first time this morning. It was good. I used only 1/4 tsp vanilla, but I could barely distinguish it, so I recommend using a tad more if you prefer bold flavors like myself. Can be easily doubled, tripled, etc. And experiement with extracts. I'm sure vegans (or non-ovos) can use tofu.

Steps:
- Whisk all ingredients together except syrup and toast.
- Pour mixture in a preheated skillet and prepare eggs to your preference (omelette-syle, etc. I scramble with a fork).
- Heat up syrup in a microwave.
- Place cooked egg on toast.
- Pour on syrup and sprinkle on some more cinnamon and/or sweetener if desired Eat& Enjoy!
Tips:
- Use stale bread: Stale bread absorbs the egg mixture better and results in a crispier French toast.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: Cooking too many slices of French toast at once will result in uneven cooking.
- Use a non-stick skillet: A non-stick skillet will prevent the French toast from sticking and tearing.
- Cook over medium heat: Cooking over medium heat will help the French toast cook evenly without burning.
- Flip the French toast only once: Flipping the French toast too often will make it tough.
- Serve immediately: French toast is best served hot off the griddle, with your favorite toppings.

French toast is a delicious and versatile breakfast or brunch dish that can be made with a variety of different ingredients.
