This strawberry mascarpone stuffed French toast is the perfect way to welcome the weekend. Fresh summer strawberries and sweet mascarpone all stuffed between two thick slices of soft challah bread.
Do you know what I love? Breakfast.
Do you know what I normally never cook? Breakfast.
I guess I’m more of a girl who loves breakfast but only if she doesn’t have to cook or clean up the breakfast. That’s totally acceptable, right?
However, if there is one breakfast I don’t mind making {if the hubby agrees to clean up} is French toast.
I would have to say it’s hands down my favorite breakfast food and almost always order it when I hit up the diner.
Especially because the diner always uses fresh challah bread to make their French toast. It’s super thick sliced and coated in sweet tons of powdered sugar.
Hello, delicious!
That’s why when Katie asked me guest post over at her blog I was more than excited to help out. Kate just had a beautiful baby boy and I’m so super thrilled for her.
Of course, a little baby means a little less time for the blog so I’m super pumped to helping out. I hope you will all take some time to pop on over and say hello and give some love to Katie and this post.
Plus this French toast is totally mandatory for this weekend. Trust me, you want to make this!

I am super into EATING fancy breakfasts but not so into making them. But for these…I would make an exception. How could I resist?!
