The weekend of gorging
October 12, 2009

More salad love

This morning, I made French toast for maybe the second time in my life. 2 eggs 1/4 tsp almond extract Cinnamon Walnuts 2 slices of Jay’s homemade bread [...]

Here’s the recipe: Makes 4 servings, is worth 4 points per fillet 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce 1 tbsp chopped peeled fresh ginger 1 [...]
