French Toast Is Better Than Our Toast

French Toast. Is there anything better? Top 5 breakfast foods at least. But of course, normal French Toast just won't do. That's why the dish this week is Baked Chocolate and Banana French Toast.

My mouth has been watering since I found this recipe.

So I'm actually at a friends house today and thought I'd make breakfast for everybody. This is a pretty easy recipe that doesn't require much and is pretty easy to make!

Just like regular French Toast you have to mix up some eggs and milk and whisk them up. Then I added some cinnamon, just for a bit more flavour.

Then make a whole bunch of banana and Nutella sandwiches. Try not to be deterred and end up just eating these sandwiches. The end result will be much better.

Assemble the sandwiches, dunk them in the egg mixture and lay them on a cookie sheet and pop them into the oven!

Turn them once halfway through, and after about 20 minutes you have your Banana and Nutella French Toast. Cut it in half and serve it up!

My normally overly-noisy friends were relatively quiet while we ate, so I'd say overall it was a success.

The Why And The How

So for this post I thought I'd take a break from cooking something, and just explain a little more about how this blog came to be.

In the last few years, I've become pretty much obsessed withThe Food Network shows. From Chopped, to You Gotta Eat Here, and most recently Cutthroat Kitchen. But before I became a fan of the ridiculous looking Guy Fieri, I was already a huge Gordon Ramsay fan.

It's difficult to own a television and be up to date with current trends, and not know who Gordon Ramsay is. He's that usually-angry, always-British chef who had about half of the shows on the Food Network at one point. Before all these new fangled cooking shows came along, Ramsay was already cooking with a fiery passion for food. He was the first chef who made me think I'd really enjoy cooking.

A few years later and he we are. I'm given a blog assignment for class, and told to write about something I enjoy and am passionate about. So I thought, what a great way to show that Ramsay has inspired me to learn how to cook well and enjoy doing so. So thanks Ramsay, and my professor for finally making me blog.

It's been a blast so far.
