Righteous eating doesn’t have to mean a breakfast full of bland and nasty food.  This easy little take on plain old french toast is enough fun for eleven people and a circus monkey.  It’s so ridiculously simple to make, and you get to use a rotten old banana in the process, which elevates this delightful little treat from kinda cute to sexy cool.  So, what are you waiting for?  Grab yourself all the fixins for plain old french toast, and I’ll show you how to transform it into this party of a breakfast in two shakes of a clown’s nose.
