Non-traditional French Toast

Alright everybody. If you are interested in any type of vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free food, or are just looking for a way to change up your diet, you need to follow the Sprout Sisters.  They are three sisters who have been living a vegan/gluten-free lifestyle for some time now.  They post recipes for everyone to try at their leisure, which is exactly what I did!

I tried out the blueberry banana french toast, but because I am not vegan or gluten-free, I had to make some changes.

I particularly enjoyed this recipe because it smelled AMAZING and it tasted good too!  The original recipe calls for blueberries, soy milk and gluten-free bread, which I didn’t have at my disposal.  I think that the almond milk and whole wheat bread still tasted awesome.

I enjoyed this breakfast outside with a lovely cup of chamomile and lemon tea which made for the perfect start to my Monday.

Bon Appetit!
