My attempt:

Comments: I've always been a fan of French Toast so when I came across this recipe I couldn't wait to try it. My usual way of preparing this was just with the eggs and bread, but I thought the addition of the milk and vanilla extract adding some great flavor turning a good dish into a great dish without adding many more calories. I didn't have any berries on hand so I topped mine with just a bit of lite syrup. I hope you try it, and if you do, please post your own thoughts about it below in the comments section.

Yours In Health,
