Ooh, I was thinking of carrot cake this am. then Honey was talking how he needs to get back on a lower-carb plan
Last night I came up with something we really liked. We aren't good at naming recipes so it will probably be called That Blueberry Toast Stuff.
I really needed to use eggs, and we were all looking for something sweet. I was thinking French Toast, but standing at the stove that long was going to be too much, so baked French toast it was! I used potato bread, it was the heartiest bread I had on hand.
Bake a pound of bacon on a foil lined cookie sheet at 350 for 15 min.
Generously butter a lasagna sized pan. You can use a smaller cake pan and just use less bread.
Cube half a loaf of bread and put in pan. Mix a block of softened cream cheese with about 1/3 cup powdered sugar and a healthy splash of milk to make it a spreadable consistency, then spread over bread. Sprinkle with blueberries--I used frozen, and about 1 1/2 cups on each layer. Top the blueberries with the rest of the loaf of bread, cubed. Then another layer of blueberries, then chop the bacon and sprinkle on top.
Mix a dozen eggs, a dash of salt, sugar to taste, vanilla and couple glugs of milk. pour this over the bread, covering all you can. cover and bake at 350 for 30 min, then uncover and bake another 20-25 min.
We loved it! The only suggestion I got was for more bacon. I personally didn't think it needed more, but I might divide it and put some on each layer instead of all on top. I'd also add some nutmeg to the egg mixture, I just like nutmeg with my blueberries.
Tonight will be nachos.
