Pumpkin French Toast Triangles

by bhealthy on January 26, 2009

Oh how I love my french toast! I grabbed a huge can of pumpkin puree at the store and was excited to use it!
1 BLOG 015
I used 1/2 cup egg whites ( from the carton they say it is equivalent of 2 eggs. However, 1 egg white provides 20 calories and 5 grams of protein. The carton egg whites ( “100% all egg whites”) says 1/4 cup provides 1 serving, at 30 calories and 6 grams of protein, which means it really isn’t equivalent to 1 egg white or it is a labelling issue ? ). Anyway.

Today’s Recipe:
1/2 cup egg whites
2 globs of pumpkin
1/2 tsp vanilla
cinnamon
Whisk

Dip 2 slices of bread/toast into the batter- drop into a skillet on medium heat. I flipped after I could smell it was ready, then sliced with my spatula into triangles.

While it cooked I heated peaches and cherries (frozen) in the microwave. For a little “stuffing” I added cottage cheese in between the triangles.

Okay, the plan for today

Body:
I hope to get in a Run. I think I am going to “pace” myself this time but we will see- I feel so tough and wonderful when I am speeding along at 9.5 mph every couple minutes. hmm

Mind:
Study second set of terminology for quiz thursday- and group study session tomorrow.

Send out article to vitamins group, write synopsis for it

Go pick up package at post office ( I think its my chef coat and Jeff’s title to Lurlota)

work on resume, send to new job lead

Check on bank: overdraft’s were supposed to be refunded by friday- and I heard that my other bank was hacked into and 56,000 people are at risk. sigh.

Soul:

If I get a run in and all this other stuff done, my soul will feel great!

I am excited to see my mom, brother, sister, aunt and cousin friday! AND…. excited to see our friends in Asheville and see one of our favorite bands play! AND.. excited to watch my Steelers win the superbowl!!

    Dailygoods: oh my goodness I hope you enjoy it! I have told others that it might be even better with a little sweetness added to it. I am a “plain” kinda gal so I just use the sweetness from my fruit but most people would enjoy maple syrup or brown sugar or whatever.
    Mads: YOU are Awesome! thanks babydoll
    Dori: oh I hope your boyfriend enjoys it!
    Lauren: Hope your monday is as spectacular as can be!
    SweetandFit: Did you really make this for breakfast?! ?! Oh I am so happy, I hope you enjoyed it and I will catch up on my reading in a little while!
    luckytastebuds: Thank you for the comment! and You are quite welcome- I think many people would enjoy a little more sweetness like sugar or maple syrup -
    M* Thanks for the comment and welcome! I have seen sabra coupons on couponsuzy.com but they change them often. good luck finding them- I am going to attempt making my own hummus but i just can’t get enough of sabra’s pine nut.. yum
    Moran- yah for moving to the US ! Well, I would also LOVE to live in Europe for a bit too- can we trade lives for a few months?
    Veggiegirl you are the best- i hope school is going well for you future journalist!
