Title: My wife is trying to kill me
Post by: mtnbkr on January 29, 2007, 03:32:09 PM
She found a recipe for peanut butter and jelly french toast.  You take a PB&J sandwich, coat it in the typical french toast egg mixture, and pan fry. 

It's sooooo good.

I need bypass surgery now.

Did you put thinly sliced pieces of bananna in it?

Banana is healthy!

How dare you!

Mrs. Mtnbkr called me, all satisfied with herself over the damage she was doing to her husband. Smiley

Of course, I was in the middle of making homemade mayonaise... Cheesy

I don't really like French toast, nor am I especially fond of PB&J. However, in this case two negatives may make a positive. grin I think I may have to try PB&J French toast. Sounds interesting. Mtnbkr, would you be willing to post the recipe? Thanks.

<sigh>now you're trying to kill me.  Do you know how many MILES I'm going to have to ride to work all this off?  Huh?

Mtnbkr, would you be willing to post the recipe? Thanks.
I did post it.  It's a PB&J sammich dipped in whatever you use to make french toast (we use an egg or two beat with a bit of vanilla).  Fry the sloppy mess in butter for 3min on each side.  Eat plain or with maple syrup if you really hate yourself.

I see. Nothing fancy, just combine your ordinary recipes for those two foods. Thanks.

I make my french toast eggs:  6 eggs, 3 tablespoons of cream, 3 tablespoons of OJ, about 1/2 teaspoon of cinnimon. I like to make mine with french bread.

Chris,

Follow these instructions exactly! Cancel your life insurance. Have your mouth surgically sewn shut.

If you can't eat you will die, but not so quickly as a heart attack tomorrow. Secondly, if there is no life insurance, no one will be happy you are gone. Make them miserable while you are here. After you are gone you have lost your chance. My dog seems to be telling me to say this through whimpers and eye movements! Wait, maybe she just needs to go outside!

My favorite way to make French toast is with Banana bread. Spread Peanut butter and cover in maple syrup when done cooking. Get fat.

Peanut butter and jelly sammiches cooked up like a grilled cheese sammich (make the PB&J, then butter the bread and cook in a skillet) is darned tasty.  Never thought to dip the thing in egg first, though.  Truthfully, the French toast PB&J doesn't sound as good.

Speaking of Wilford...

My friend's mom went to see some movie where he played a bad guy.  During the course of the movie, he gets slapped around a bit.  She took great pleasure in seeing this.  That was funny to hear coming from an otherwise gentle, sweet lady. Smiley

Sounds mighty good and artery clogging chris, can't wait to try it. If you use "Smart Balance" PB maybe it'll be healthy then.  rolleyes  grin

Just my addition to the recipe folder. I'll put a little maple syrup and vanilla in my french toast batter, same for pancakes. I learnd the syrup thong working in resturants and the vanilla thing comes from granny. She claims it;s "Italian style".

I baby sat once.

Mtnbkr couldn't get away from work and Mtnwife needed an Xray on her foot. They wouldn't let her take Mtnmiggit anywhere near the Xray room, so I buzzed over to the facility and stayed with Abby.

All I can say is thank God we were at a medical facility with trauma teams... Smiley

Actually, Abby was just perfectly wonderful. The only problem was when Michele went into the Xray room. Abby INSISTED on joining her, but listened to me when I told her no, even though she wasn't happy about it.

Deep fat fried candybars aren't that good. I tried a deep fat friend Snickers at the Iowa State Fair last summer and it didn't live up the expectation I was expecting. My wife had a deep friend Twinkie and it wasn't that good either.

Haven't found anything yet.  Irwin introduced us to battered and deepfried corn on the cob.  I had never heard of such a delicacy even though I'm from a land where everything that isn't moving eventually gets deepfried in animal fat.

You may think he's joking about the 'Feast of a Thousand Fried Foods' party, but we've actually come up with a large menu of items that can all be breaded and fried in my turkey fryer.  Some of those foods start out healthy (prior to the heavy battery and hot boiling oil, that is...).

Three days per week in the gym and as much riding as I can stand so I can eat this way. Cheesy

Face it, Charby, Twinkees are just plain crappy tasting no matter what.

Deep fry a Ho Ho or a Ding Dong?

I'd be a LOT more interested in trying one of those.

And tell the good people how that deep fried corn was, Chris...

I know that when I originally suggested it you were pretty dubious about the concept.

You do realize that if we ever do the Feast of a Thousand Fried Foods that the easiest way to do it will be to simply treat your turkey fryer as a huge fondue pot, right?

Before we start frying, though, we'll have to stop by Lowes to get a couple of pitchforks...



"prior to the heavy battery"

They has those too, they used a corn dog batter which might have been the problem to begin with.

Pancake batter works well.

White cake mix would work.

Most corndog batter recipes have corn meal in them. The mouth feel and taste would be very much off for something sweet.
