This morning, after a good night’s sleep, I turned the oven to 375 and threw in the breakfast strata I made yesterday in preparation for our company. It was so easy! I love when you can pre-make something so it is ready with no work when you need it.

For breakfast I served:

  • Fat Free French Toast Strata (a first time for this, usually it’s low-fat)
  • Orange fruit salad : oranges and cantaloup
  • Spicy sausage (no pic, sorry I wasn’t really interested in this)

Fat/Sugar Free French Toast Strata

  • 1 1/2 cartons of Just Whites (egg whites)
  • 1 brick of fat free cream cheese (this melted much better than I thought)
  • 1/2 c. sugar free syrup ( or more if you would like)
  • 2 tbsp. vanilla
  • 1 tbsp. cinnamon (lots!)
  • 2/3 c. skim milk
  • 1 loaf or close to it 100% whole wheat bread
  1. Cut bread into cubes – like 1/2 in. by 1/2 in.
  2. Place cubes into sprayed baking dish you are planning on serving in
  3. In a bowl, mix egg whites, syrup, milk, cinnamon and vanilla.
  4. Cover the bread with the mixture.
  5. Cut cream cheese into little pieces and place throughout the dish.
  6. Cover with foil and keep cold in the fridge.
  7. Let dish set for 10-12 hours/overnight at least so bread is soggy.
  8. Bake at 375 for about and hour or until egg is cooked throughout!
  9. Serve hot with syrup!

Yum!
