on 8/9/2009 I freeze thick pieces of french toast in individual bags. It's a perfect high protein meal if you are on the run. 5*

on 3/10/2008 I like the video addition! See my own article on making French toast with rye bread. Yep: it's simple, quick, hearty, and it's got both protein and carbohydrates built in. With the "right" toppings, produce as well. Bravo.
