#14 The Case of French Vanilla Toast

Here's a perfect example of Becki Green getting-out-of-bed motivation. And it's not just an indulgence. It has protein. The secret here is the 1/4 tsp vanilla.

2 eggs (or your egg style liquid equivalent—my Simply Eggless equivalent is 1/2 cup)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
salt
2 slices whole-wheat bread
1 teaspoon olive oil
icing sugar
maple syrup

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, vanilla and salt to taste.

Dip both sides of the bread in the egg mixture and let soak just a little then fry in the olive oil until golden brown on both sides.

Dust with icing sugar and serve with maple syrup.

Serves 1.

    This looks and sounds sooooo yummy. And LUV the sliced bananas on top. Sounds like a perfect 'breakfast for lunch' idea today. :D

      Good morning Patti! Ah, you came to this post through French Banana Toast. Yes, I think the bananas are a great addition. They make it a meal. And a healthier one with the portion of fruit. A comfort meal for any time of day, as you say.

The Case of Vegetarian Detective in Italy

B uon giorno!   I feel like a snob saying, "I'm just back from Italy." That's me: jetsetter. Yeah, right!   But wow...Italy!   I could talk up a storm, and I surely will as I adjust to being back here, six time zones from magnificent Italia . I often ask people who've just travelled what was their favourite part of their trip. If I ask the same of myself, my answer is seeing Michelangelo's sculptures. His Pietà and The Statue of David literally moved me to tears. I just can't believe I saw "him" in person!   So...our plane from Toronto was delayed six hours and we missed the first day of activities, but we still visited Rome, Montecatini, Siena, San Gimignano, Pisa, Vinci, Florence, Cinque Terre and Assisi. Quite the agenda for ten days, including the two flight days, wouldn't you say? But Trafalgar made it work. I would go on a Trafalgar trip again in a heartbeat.   Things I learned in Italy:   In the regions we ...
