Grilled Cheese French Toast

Grilled Cheese French Toast-4 I will openly admit that I patted myself on the back for this one. Grilled Cheese French Toast.

The term “leftover grilled cheese sandwiches” is probably an oxymoron, but the next time you make grilled cheese, I recommend making a few extra, and transforming those extras into this magical breakfast the next day. Or if you are a “breakfast for dinner” type (which means you are an awesome person), this is a good, hearty option.

Grilled Cheese French Toast

By some feat of nature, I did find myself with extra grilled cheese sandwiches.  When I had company recently and served Roasted Tomato Soup with grilled cheese sticks, I did a test-run for the sanwiches that morning. Honestly, I will serve anything scrambled with eggs and call it “breakfast.” So I whisked up two eggs and a splash of milk, soaked the extra grilled cheese sticks and bites in the eggs, squeezing the grilled cheese a bit to saturate the already-toasted bread with egg, and fried it up. This is a savory french toast, and I think some ketchup for dunking rounds out this dish – and slightly approximates tomato soup.

I know someone who was happy to be a taste-tester for this recipe. {I love this picture. Little sneaker.}

Grilled cheese for breakfast? Yes please! Perfect for little fingers, or a grown-up brunch (kegs and eggs anyone?)
Author: myutensilcrock.com
Recipe type: Breakfast, Brunch
Ingredients
  • 2 prepared grilled cheese sandwiches, cut into strips or bite-sized squares
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 T skim milk
Instructions
  1. Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and milk well.
  3. Add the grilled cheese, and toss to coat. Squeeze the grilled cheese to really coat it well and saturate it.
  4. Spray the skillet with cooking spray, and add the coated grilled cheese, shaking off the excess egg as you pull it from the pan. {You can also just dump the whole thing in the skillet, if you don't mind extra egg with your grilled cheese.}
  5. Let it sit until the egg starts to turn opaque, and flip the pieces when they start to brown on the bottom (look at one to test it).
  6. Continue browning and flipping until all sides are cooked and the egg is opaque.
  7. Serve with ketchup for dipping.
