Pinterest French Toast




No Flipping!  No waiting while keeping slices warm! More time to snuggle in bed!

Another idea that has jumped from my computer screen to my kitchen.  This was so simple and easy, I'll never make French Toast on the stove top again!

Ingredients: 
4 eggs
6 slices of bread
2 tbs sugar
1 tsp nutmeg
1tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup milk ( I use almond milk)




Step 1:
Whisk together eggs, milk, sugar,nutmeg, and cinnamon

Layer bread into a baking dish or pan. (grease if desired but not necessary)



Step 2: 

Pour wet mixture slowly over bread.
Gently tilt pan to allow liquid to be absorbed.
Cover with foil.














Step 3: 
Bake, covered at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.

Uncover and bake an additional 5 minutes











Step 4:

Serve with butter and warm syrup!

Enjoy

Pinterest Pizza Rolls

Pinterest Pizza Rolls

Ingredients: 
Pizza Dough
Pizza Sauce
Mozzarella Cheese
Pepperoni
Garlic Salt 
Italian Seasoning
Butter
You may have seen it on Pinterest as I did.  I did not have a pan small enough so I placed them in a greased muffin tin and I used pizza dough from my local grocery store.  I rolled out small balls of dough and placed 2 pieces of pepperoni, a tsp of pizza sauce, and a tbs of mozzarella cheese in the center.  Pull the edges together to form a seal and place in a greased muffin tin.  Brush the tops with butter, dust with garlic salt, Italian seasoning, and sprinkle with a bit more cheese.  Bake for 20 mins. at 425 degrees.  I tried it!  It worked!  Serve with extra sauce for dipping.

Time to Craft and Cook

When I have long breaks like this from teaching, I like to do two things.  As a teacher, learning to craft something new is always fun and cooking is my relaxation tool.  Here are two of the things I have done in this final week of my break.  Sometimes, I'm such a girl!

T-shirt Scarf done in less than an hour.


Gluten Free Cooking- Quinoa and Squash with Grilled Rolled and Stuffed Flank Steak


If you want recipes or directions on either of these two, comment this post and I'll get back to you.

Enjoy,

Lanters

I created this lighting feature in my living room from lanterns and a shower rod that I bought at IKEA.
Under $20.00

I strung the lanterns using thin wire from the hardware store that I spray painted to look like hammered metal.  This is the same spray paint used on the shower rod that I attached to the wall.
