Cottage Cheese Stuffed French Toast

Breakfast food is my favorite.

Problem= With a 7:45 am class 4 days a week, I don’t usually have time to cook a fancy breakfast in the morning.

Solution= Breakfast for lunch.

Here’s a simple recipe for Cottage Cheese Stuffed French Toast. (Not sure if it qualifies as a recipe, more like assembly instructions):

Ingredients:

2 pieces of bread

2 egg whites

½ c. cottage cheese

cooking spray

Toppings:

Blueberries

Chopped almonds

Honey

Instructions:

1. Spray a frying pan and heat it to a medium high heat. While that is heating, dump egg whites into a bowl.
2. Dip your bread into the egg whites letting them absorb a little on each side.
3. Place the bread in the frying pan and let it cook for a little bit. Then flip. *
4. Repeat this for the other piece of bread, spraying the pan in between. If you have a bigger pan, you could probably cook both at once.
5. Scoop half of your cottage cheese onto one piece of bread and place the other on top. Scoop the rest of the cottage cheese on top of that.
6. Top with blueberries, a drizzle of honey, and chopped almonds.
7. Enjoy!

*Knowing when to flip things is not my strong point… So I probably flipped it after about 15 seconds, and then flipped it again. Basically flipped it back and forth until it seemed done. As one friend once told me, a job at IHOP is not in my future.

Recent Recipes!

As a townhouse dweller, I am a big fan of the microwave. And the George Forman Grill. But lately, I’ve been trying to cook more and am finding out that some things aren’t that hard. So here is a look at some recent things I have been making:

Quinoa and Black Bean Stuffed Peppers! The best part of this was that I made it with a friend and we got to catch up! So fun! She is an education major and I am a psychology major but we still had so much in common to talk about! Love hearing about other people’s college experiences!

Lentil Soup in the small crock pot! I eliminated the balsamic vinegar because I didn’t have any. Still delicious! So glad I discovered the ease of crock pot cooking!

Non-Recipe Recipes! So simple and easy!

Peanut Butter Coconut Toast and Strawberries. Delicious night snack!

Sweet Potatoes, Cooked Peppers/Broccoli/Mushrooms, Eggs, and Feta Cheese! Sweet potatoes are one of my favorites, and I recently discovered that I like feta cheese! It’s a strong taste!

Looking forward to making more homemade meals when I have time!
