Happy Saturday!
I love not having to set an alarm clock :)
Besides bacon, we are running low on just about everything this morning, so I had to get creative with my part of breakfast.
We only had 1 egg left, so I made Nick’s french toast with the egg and some milk.
Once his was done cooking, I coated my 2 slices of ww bread in a mixture of ground flax, water, and milk.
It definitely wasn’t the same texture of regular french toast, but it tasted great!
While the french toast was cooking, I took some leftover diced apple, pecans, and cranberries from our salads last night, tossed with some cinnamon, and heated up for 1 minute in the microwave.
A drizzle of maple syrup completed this dish – I love the tart cranberries the most! I wish I had used more, but we ran out last night.
Nick also made coffee :) Freshly ground Kona. The perfect thing to have on a frosty Saturday morning.
I’ve got to go start the car + defrost the windows so I can head out – I’ve got a bunch of stuff to do today:
- Call my parents for our regular Saturday morning phone call
- Get groceries
- Run some Christmas related errands (hopefully!)
- Do a fun blogger related errand :)
- Come back and get ready for a potluck tonight

French toast on a Saturday = perfect :)
Saturday’s are probs my favorite day, because the weekend workload doesn’t feel so necessary
I slept in for me but now I’m on to work.
I like your substitute. I don’ thave flax but I’m interested in it being used as an egg substitute.
Yummy looking breakfast.. I love your mug too, how cute!!
