Dutch Crunch French Toast

September 21, 2017

dutch crunch french toast

One thing I hate about fresh bread is that it doesn’t stay fresh for very long.  I had some left over Dutch Crunch bread that wasn’t fresh enough to eat, and I decided to use it to make Dutch Crunch French Toast.  It was really yummy!  I was going to add some Bailey’s to the batter, but I realized I did not have any.  I had some Grand Marnier which is just as good to use.

I don’t make french toast very often even though I love it because I am trying to be healthier and stay away from gluten.  However, it’s really tough because I love bread.  I just try to limit how much I eat these days.  It was a treat for me this morning.

Mexican Turkey Meatloaf

I decided to give my normal meatloaf some Mexican flare, so here is my Mexican Turkey Meatloaf recipe I made tonight.  My husband and I tend to like things more spicy, but you can certainly tone down the spice if you want and it will be just as delicious.

Mexican Turkey Meatloaf Mix

They key to a moist meatloaf is to make sure you have enough liquid in it.  I use marinara sauce or ketchup in any type of meatloaf I make.  The marinara sauce did not impact the flavor of the Mexican Turkey Meatloaf in a negative way either.  I experimented, and it all actually worked together.

Gluten Free Options:  You can find gluten free bread crumbs at the store, or you can make them yourself.  I have also ground gluten free crackers before and used instead since I always have them on hand.
