SAVORY JALAPENO FRENCH TOAST



Savory Jalapeno French Toast image

My sister picked up some jalapeno bread by mistake. She was going for cheddar cheese bread. We don't usually do spicy (delicate stomachs, don't you know), but not wanting to waste perfectly good bread, she came up with this recipe. The sour cream helped tone it down from HOT to a flavorful spiciness. We served it with Ham and Black Bean Toss with Cilantro. It was yummy! Avocado slices and cherry tomatoes would go great with this.
