i have a hard time with breakfast...coming up with ideas for lunch can be hard too, but breakfast poses more of a challenge, so when i saw this following recipe in a magazine (i can't remember which one), i copied it down. here it is:
citrusy french toast - serves 8
2 cups pancake mix
2 cups of water
4 teaspoons grated orange zest
4 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/2 c of butter, divided
16 slices of white sandwich bread
maple syrup
whisk first 4 ingredients and 1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons butter in medium bowl until smooth. melt remaining 1 tablespoon in butter in a skillet over medium heat. dip bread slices in the batter, coating well. cook slices in skillet in batches 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden, turning with spatula. remove from pan; keep warm. serve w/maple syrup.
when i make that, i serve it with brown sugared turkey bacon,. i don't eat pork so i use turkey bacon, also it's less fattening.
1/2 cup of brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon cinnamon
8 slices of thick sliced bacon, halved
combine sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. dip each piece of bacon into mixture to coat. arrange each piece in an aluminum foil-lined broiler pan. bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes, or until turkey bacon is crisp and sugar is bubbly. place on aluminum foil to cool, makes 16 pieces.
the turkey slices made that way is super delicious. if i don't have time to make the toast, i just buy the raisin/cinammon bread and toast that and spread butter over it and serve it with the turkey bacon and instant grits. hope u enjoy!
