Sorry for delay in replying – I get up at 6am these days so that I can spend a couple hours with Marco before heading off to work. Want to give him plenty of attention and exercise when I can as he’s on his own for 3.5 hours in the morning and afternoon with an hour’s walk in between. It’s worked out well for us both! He’s a happy pup and I eat properly in the mornings.
Have been trying out the egg breakfasts and, it’s true, I’m not that hungry until lunchtimes these days. Still need to try out this recipe. Looking forward to it.

Heather – French toast with poached fruit sounds lovely. I’m absolutely sure the baking method would work with conventional French toast. It’s one of those recipes that might take a couple of goes to get right depending on your oven

I love French toast with poached fruit and a little syrup of some kind – maple, agave, melted raw honey. Do you think the baked technique would work as a sweet recipe? I can’t see why it wouldn’t.

Love the addition of cottage cheese for that added protein boost. Thanks for the recipe. Hope that hubby had a good race.

Meeta – glad you like it! I tried a few combinations but this one seems to work the best
ttfn300 – triathlons sound fun, if in a slighty painful way. Definitely give it a go next year!
Lucy – I symphasise entirely, it’s hard to stay svelte when you’re working from home. Baking the french toast definitely uses a lot less fat and the thing is a pleasantly filling
Kathryn – I thought/hoped you would like this one. The nerdy nutritionist in me was pleased with the way the recipe combines so many food groups in one breakfast :-)
Wendy – I’m very intrigued to learn how having a dog means you have more time for breakfast. Is it because you get up much earlier? Cinnamon bagel, fruit and cottage cheese sounds great too but its definitely worth giving something like this a try if you get hungry quickly
Elaine – let me know how you get on if you try it!
Bee, we often have this for breakfast on a Sunday. It’s perfect for a lazy day, when you have a bit more time to cook and chop!

Delicious and different. I’m about to have my egg for breakfast but I think I will try this recipe on the weekend.
Lovely photos, too.

Since getting Marco I’ve been (at last) able to spend time eating a proper breakfast at home rather than grabbing toast with a cheese slices at school. The last few weeks I’ve been eating cinnamon bagels with cottage cheese and a few plums on the side. Lovely but, you’re right, I’m hungry by 10am. Will eat eggs next week and see how I feel.
P.S. I love french toast but when I made it recently I was really put off by the amount of oil required. Look forward to trying this out. :)

Sophie, this is brilliant. Two recipes in one, something that can be prepped the night before. And you’ve matched French toast with vegetables – rather than the usual sweet accompaniments. Brilliant. I think we’ll be having this very soon.
