This smells so good when cooking! I added the zest of the orange, as the other reviewer mentioned, to add even more of that citrus flavor. My slices of French bread were about 5 inches by 3 inches, 3/4 inch thick, and there was only enough liquid for six slices. Maybe I let them soak up too much? I will try this recipe again for sure! -
I made this this morning for breakfast. No way is this enough fo 12 pieces! (Maybe my pieces of bread were a lot bigger?) Mine made about 6 pieces. Enough for us for breakfast, but not enough to freeze. Darn! I'll have to make more! :) I used 1/2 c milk and 1/2 c orange juice b/c I really like the custardy taste of French toast. I also added the zest of about 1/2 an orange. This is really yummy. Thanks for sharing. :)

I live in Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to run into Recipezaar around Nov. 2000 and got hooked quickly. I am a cookbook collector and have been collecting recipes for as long as I can remember. My DH had to build in shelves for all my cookbooks! I like to dabble with OAMC and for a few years hosted the Budget/OAMC forum with some great people over there. Even though I don't work in the forum any longer I've set up a lot of cookbooks for the purpose of OAMC and stretching food that might be helpful. Please feel free to check them out! I go on food jags and cooking jags! Please come say hi to me and chat on facebook. I currently host a blog for saving money through finding deals and coupons if you are interested. Most of the time I try to cook and have a good dinner on the table but I'll be honest enough to say there is still fast food occasionally in the budget! I have had such wonderful support here whenever I need it. Thank you all for being here! Just a quick note on how I rate recipes:
? 5 stars - This recipe is perfect. (My DH is truly a critic and doesn't give 5's unless it's amazing) I would recommend it to others and would definitely make again.
? 4 stars - This recipe was good but I would change something in it next time.
? 3 stars - This is a recipe I would not make again but it was OK
? 2 stars - This recipe I would not make again and we didn't like it at all
? 1 star - This recipes did not work out/taste was unappealing and wouldn't make again
