Blueberry French Toast
"I saw this recipe on a cooking show, don't remember which one, I was too busy copying the recipe.
The reason I wanted it is because it can be made up the night before and baked in the morning. I love recipes like that for breakfast!
Beside...blueberries AND french toast? MMMmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!"

Very easy and quick and convenient. I used frozen blueberries and lots of cinnamon sugar. My husband loved it and he's not a big french toast fan. Thank you! -
This was easy to make. The adults enjoyed this dish but the kids did not like it. I think this would be a good brunch dish for adults.
