Give us eggs, bacon, pancakes, waffles, bagels, hash browns, muffins…you name it, we’ll most likely eat it. I say most likely because I’m not too sure about that lox and bagel thing. You take the seafood for breakfast and I’ll eat all the other stuff.
I was in the mood to make a baked French toast again but wanted to use something other than a croissant, Challah or Brioche. I was shopping in my local Smart & Final when B-I-N-G-O!!!
No, I didn’t start singing, I spied with my little eyes some bagels, and they were Smart & Final’s First Street Blueberry Bagels to be exact!
Right then I knew that these would be perfect.
I was also excited because I was able to purchase First Street Granulated Sugar and the blueberries I needed for less than what I would have paid at my local grocery store. Smart & Final is great because you purchase items at warehouse prices without paying a fee.
It’s one-stop shopping for any food, bakery items, produce or household goods that I might need.
I also love it because the store is just the right size. I don’t feel like I’m going into a large, open warehouse store.

I love this recipe because it’s something that you make up the night before, stick in the fridge and then bake it in the morning.
It’s the perfect breakfast for this time of year because, with the beginning of Spring, you don’t want to be spending lots of time in the house. It’s time to get outside and enjoy the fresh air after being cooped up all winter!
