Lavender Lemon French Toast

Lavender Lemon French Toast

My son was home for the July 4th weekend, so I always make some special meals. I whipped up this awesome French toast infused with lavender and lemon flavoring. I found a wonderful lavender lemon simple syrup that was my inspiration. Cutting super fat pieces of bakery challah bread, doesn’t hurt either. My son loved it!

No April foolin’ around with this French Toast ~ this here is the real deal! Made it with the extra-thick sliced special sour-white loaf (toned down sourdough bread) from my local bakery, The Bread Box. It was then soaked in heavy cream, eggs, cinnamon & vanilla. YASSS! Topped it with fresh whipped cream & Poteet strawberries roasted w/maple syrup, vanilla & thyme. Don’t be an April Fool – make your family this special treat!

It’s a gorgeous day in San Antonio & this breakfast just shouts GOOD MORNING!!! These BREAKFAST TOSTADOS are our version of toast, around here! I used a blow torch to crisp up these yummy corn tortillas, added some cheese, avocado & a sunny side up egg. Topped it all with pretty watermelon radishes, sprouts, cilantro, tomatillo salsa & Humble House Guajillo & Red Jalapeño Aged Tangy Garlic Sauce.

Any of y’all still get the paper? There’s just something about enjoying your morning coffee & breakfast w/the smell & feel of a real newspaper. On my Instagram post, someone even suggested it is romantic. I agree! BREAKFAST is SPROUTS, instead of hash browns, 2 slices of BACON, a gorgeous thick slice of TOASTED MARBLE RYE, and a SUNNY SIDE UP EGG topped with RED JALAPEÑO TANGY GARLIC SAUCE (ain’t that a mouthful)! A superior way to start the morning ~ real food & a real newspaper!

Aren’t these English Muffin PB&J Loaded Toasts givin’ off an adorable VALENTINE VIBE?! These fab muffins are from one of our local bakeries & the homemade Strawberry Rhubard Jam is all mine! AND, Uh Oh!!!! I’m down to my last jar of Poteet strawberry jam! Thank goodness strawberry season is around the corner! I digress…This simple concoction is topped with fresh & frozen berries and black chia seeds. Only more day & it’s Valentines Day 2019!

Valentine Avocado Toast

BREAKFAST

Not sure who deserves top billing on this Valentine post… Is it the lovely marble rye from The Bread Box OR the sunny egg OR the heart shaped avo? Either way, treat your sweetie to this lovely breakfast & you’ll get your own star on the Valentine Walk of Fame!

Additional Deets: Toasted a thick slice of Marble Rye bread. Fried the egg in a cute little pan, and I mean little, that makes a perfect circle. Practiced a bunch of times and managed to make an avocado heart. Topped this beauty with thyme and EB seasoning.

Nine Grain Toast w/German Sugar Beet Syrup, Bananas & Hemp Seeds

BREAKFAST

My mom, who was from Mettmann, Germany, loved German sugar beet syrup. Before the internet was big for online purchases, we would rice to Austin to purchase a case at a time, from a specialty shop that could get this liquid gold. My mom used to make toast, slathered w/butter & this good stuff! Today, I’m sharing the updated version. I still put butter, but the banana and hemps seeds were a perfect compliment.  Ich bin so froh, dass ich @Graschaftenr Zuckersirup online bestellen kann. Es schmeckt wie ein kleines Stück Deutschland.
