To solve that, I’ve moved to doing this: French toast casserole. For today, I’m sharing one riffed with some blueberry and lemon flavor on Dave’s Killer Bread. It’s a bread I love to feed my kids since it’s organic, whole grain and non-GMO.
It’s also a company that I’m proudly an ambassador for. They produce 16 varieties of bread that have a hand-crafted touch that’s delivered by Dave’s Killer Bread employee-partners, 1 in 3 of whom have a criminal background and have been given a second chance. It’s an awesome and inspirational story that you can catch here.
And when you are done doing that grab the recipe below and enjoy!
