I've had a recipe for years similar to this for years. It was geared towards low-fat cooking and I might have gotten the recipe from Glamour Magazine or maybe even Cosmopolitan, over 20 years ago. Where it says butter you can use margarine or other subsbreastutes if you believe it's better for you. I used skim milk but that's what I like to drink so I keep it around; you can use whole milk if you want to :)

Rib Eye dinner last night with picsConsisted of marinated, grilled rib eye with sides. Rib eye steak was marinated in an Italian Vinagrette then grilled on high for 2 minutes...
Arrange bread slices in a shallow pan. In a small bowl blend together the eggs, milk, orange juice and honey. Pour over the bread. Turn each slice of bread to coat well. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
Heat the oven to 475F degrees. Melt butter in an 8x8 baking dish. Remove bread from the egg mixture; let excess liquid drain. Dip the bread in crushed cornflake crumbs to coat. Arrange in a single layer in the baking dish in the hot butter. Bake about 8 minutes each side, turning once or until golden brown. Drizzle the french toast with honey or real maple syrup.
My serving suggestions: fresh berries (with or without cream). Sprinkle the french toast with a little (very little) cinnamon. Me, I'd like a couple of strips of bacon on the side :)
