“I’m soooooo booooooorrrrreeeeed.” I wonder if this is how he feels when he looks over my shoulder and I’m on Pinterest. Do you like playing games on your phone? I know there are a million popular ones out there. I just can’t get into it. You should see me try to play. It’s just a series of deaths. For any video game, actually. Watching me play Mario Kart kind of feels like banging your head against the wall. I fall off the cliff again, and again, and again. Thank goodness for Instagram! (My time suck of choice. No cliffs.) Well…Savory Parmesan French Toast with Hollandaise Sauce. Hear me out you guys!! I know French Toast is supposed to be cinnamony and buttery and all maple-syrupy (see my last post for an example: Cream Cheese French Toast Casserole) but this Parmesan version is giving the sweet stuff a run for it’s money. It is sooooo good. You know how when you go out to breakfast you have to decide between sweet and savory? (Or stuffing yourself with both?) Well the savory French Toast has got your back. It really is French Toast: thick bread, egg wash, fried in butter. The original recipe stopped here, but what’s the point of French Toast without syrup? There isn’t one. Hollandaise sauce to the rescue! A note on this hollandaise sauce: it’s a blender recipe. I love it and use it all the time because it literally takes 5 minutes to make. But if you really feel like bustin’ out your double boiler for a “real” recipe, be my guest. If your dad is a savory breakfast fan, make this for him on Father’s Day! Don’t skimp on the bread; I used this already-awesome cheese bread. It’s artisan, but a regular loaf will work fine too. When you make the hollandaise sauce, tilt the blender a little bit. There’s not that much liquid in there and this helps it blend up. Keep your sauce in a bowl of hot water. If you microwave it, it will curdle. This is the method you should use after leftovers have been refrigerated as well.
