Ani's Protein French Toast

My Sunday breakfasts are usually different my overnight protein oats that I have every other day of the week.

More time to cook means experimenting in the kitchen.

The Protein French Toast is one of those that is as tasty as it is healthy!

A perfect all round breakfast that curbs cravings while also keeping you in line with your goals.
