Snow, snow, snow!


Our first day of snow! We were all excited and the girls spent a good portion of the morning with their neighborhood friends playing and laughing. I made French toast bites that have become a staple breakfast in our house. I thought I'd share this healthy and easy recipe for you.

sliced baguette pieces
1 C. egg whites (we use the egg whites that you can buy that have already been separated)
1/2 C. fat free milk
2 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon

1 tbs. unsalted butter

Preheat a large nonstick pan or a griddle to medium high heat. Whisk egg whites, milk, sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl. When the griddle is hot, spread the pat of butter to coat the surface. Dip each piece of baguette in the egg milk mixture and cook for 4-5 minutes per side. Turn once and cook until each side is golden.

I like to serve these with sliced banana or strawberries and a little maple syrup.

I like to give the girls a warm breakfast when it's so cold outside and this is fast, healthy and easy.

Give it a try!
