Late Night French Toast

Late night French Toast!

One night, not long ago, I wasn't sleeping all that well. I think I was hungry and that was part of the reason I couldn't sleep that night (after a 14 hr. fast for blood tests). I avoid late evening/night meals, usually. 

For French Toast;

1 egg combined with milk (or you can use water), beaten

2 slices wheat bread

Heat skillet on top of stove, with a small amount of olive oil. Dip bread in egg/milk mixture to cover entire piece of bread. Place in skillet. Repeat with other piece of bread.

Pan-fry both sides until brown (low to moderate heat). 

Remove to plate, add syrup, a small sprinkle of powdered sugar. I used Karo syrup and also sliced a strawberry or two to add on top.

I certainly don't want to crave this too often or late at night but it's a real treat sometimes!

Sneaky broccoli, mixed veggies, and tuna

Sneaky Veggies! Sometimes, I almost have to even fool myself. LOL I try to encourage myself to "play around" with food and therefore eat healthier. 

I cooked the rice and frozen veggies together in a rice cooker. I chopped usual onions, etc. to add to tuna. I also chopped a little bit of fresh broccoli to sneak in a little more nutrition.

Microwave baked fish and potatoes, with sliced tomato

Microwave baked fish and potatoes, with sliced tomato. 

As you know, I am all about easy, fast cooking. I am not able to stand in the kitchen stirring things all day. Nothing against those that are interested in gourmet cooking, the longer route around.

I simply placed:

1 piece of fish in glass container 

1 or 2 white or red potatoes, cut in pieces and placed in same container as fish

Added some chopped some green onion and sweet, green pepper, and black pepper

 Topped the glass container with saran wrap (punch a few holes in saran wrap with a fork)

Bake in microwave for about 9 minutes

Test to see that fish flakes easily

Slice tomato, add pepper and other spices of your choice, and serve.

One thing I like about this is that it is not messy, using a lot of containers, and it is quick, easy, healthy (for me), and delicious.

Thank you for viewing my blog and please feel free to share.

I do this blog to keep a diary of things I do prepare, my choice--for medical reasons and to share ideas with other people that may prefer simply, easy, and fast meals.
