Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 8 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 cups finely grated parmesan cheese
  • 8 slices thick cut bacon
  • 8 slices soft bread (Pullman bread works great in this recipe!)
  • Chopped fresh parsley
  • Balsamic vinegar

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 200 (this is to keep the ingredients warm while you assemble the various parts of your glorious french toast).
  • Whisk together 4 eggs, the milk and 1 cup of the parmesan cheese.  Pour the mixture into a 9×13 casserole.  Place the bread slices in a single layer in the casserole and let it soak up the egg mixture, turning a time or two.
  • While the bread is soaking, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium high heat until done to your liking.  Remove and drain on a plate lined with paper towels, popping it into the oven to keep warm.  Leave drippings in pan.
  • Fry the soaked bread in the bacon drippings over medium high heat until golden on both sides.  Put on a plate or cookie sheet and pop it in the oven to keep warm.
  • Fry the remaining 4 eggs in the same skillet until done to your liking.
  • Assemble your savory french toast!  Place a piece of fried bread on each plate, top with an egg and put some bacon on the side.  Sprinkle with remaining parmesan cheese, parsley and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and serve at once.
