Vegan French Toast

Welcome to our weekly Foodie Friday link up! I’m linking up with Annmarie from the Fit Foodie Mama + Esther from Chocolate Runner Girl to create awesome healthy recipes each week! This week’s theme = Kitchen Cleanse!

I’m still on my “old recipe revival” kick, partly because I’ve been super busy and haven’t been cooking, and partly because I’ve been lazy tired/uninspired. This recipe was actually first published way back in December of 2013! :O Adapted from here.

The changes I made were really just because I dislike using salt and I didn’t happen to have any nutmeg. This does indeed have an egg-y sort of taste to it despite there not being any in it. I bought a tapioca loaf the other day (it was on sale and I was curious) so I used that. :]

This past Wednesday was actually the first time I’ve gone grocery shopping in…at least a month and a half(?). Who even knows anymore? I met with a financial advisor last week in an attempt to get my life together (this adulting thing still sucks) and was told that I am saving my paychecks so well that I “could afford to spend (x amount) with reckless abandon if [I] wanted to.” Direct quote.

We had a good laugh, and I proceeded to drive 7.5 hours over the weekend to to celebrate my birthday on the top of a mountain we climbed and at Please Save A Cat! <3 Case in point–I have a ton of travel posts coming up. A tonnnnn. (As long as I don’t end up procrastinating like I did with the Scotland posts… >_> )

The original recipe called for 6 slices of bread, but I had enough left over for the whole loaf, so why the hell not, right? :O Waste not!

• Have you ever met with a financial advisor? I never learned about anything to do with finances so I’m only really good at pinching pennies. I learned a lot so hopefully I’ll be able to put that knowledge to good use!
• What’s your favorite type of breakfast food?
• Are you team sweet or savory?
