What's not to love. Eggnog (which is our family's favorite) and Spiced French Toast (which is so easy and filling) A win...win in my book.
French Toast

Joyce E Landry from Nova Scotia

This is a fabulous change for breakfast. Easily doubled to feed those hungry mouths. A strip or two of Canadian bacon is a great addition on the side.
Better than usual

We make a lot of french toast in our house since it is so cheap and easy. This recipe really brought plain old french toast into a new realm! We enjoyed it soooo much more with the evap milk.
