Making French Toast -
Create a Treat

	Instead of covering French toast with simple preserves, create a mixture of your favorite finely chopped fresh fruits and sprinkle with sugar.

Texas Toast

	Thick Texas toast is an incredibly good choice for French toast. Be sure you make ample egg mixture as the Texas toast will soak up more egg than most regular bread slices.
