School Starts Soon. Time To Fill Your School Time Recipe Box!

How many times have you seen those amazing pictures of "simple" recipes come across your Facebook feed or show up in your Pinterest feed? For me it is almost a daily occurance. Well there is no time like the present to try out a few of them! School mornings are hectic. All to often our kids get out the door after having nothing more than a cold bowl of cereal or some Poptarts and milk. Yes, I am VERY guilty of this! For the next few weeks I will be scouring my Facebook feeds and Pinterest boards for some simple, quick recipes that we busy parents can whip up quick for our kiddos. The goal.... put a smile on their face and a nice meal in their tummys before rushing them out the door to school. Oh and maybe, just maybe, getting that "Parent of the Year " award. Today's recipe..... French Toast Rollups.

What you will need: 3 slices of bread (with crust removed) 1 egg (beaten) 3 Tbl cream cheese (softened) 2 Large Strawberries (chopped) 1 roling pin 1 small skillet 1 Tbl Coconut Oil (or your choice) 1/2 cup granulated Sugar 2 Tbl Ground Cinnamon 1. With the rolling pin, lightly flatten out each slice of bread. When you are finished you should have a nice rectangle shape. 2. Spread each slice of bread with cream cheese. Make sure to get to the edges as this will help to "seal" the roll. 3. Place about 2 tsps of chopped strawberries at one end of the bread.

4. Roll up using the example in step #3 and gently press the edges together so that it stays rolled.

5. Heat oil of choice in a small skillet on medium heat. Place roll ups in heated oil with seam side down. Gently turn in skillet until all sides are a golden brown.

6. Remove from skillet and immeadiately roll in Cinnamon Sugar mixture.

7. Optional step: garnish with whipped cream and any remaining strawberries. This recipe got raving reviews from our teen, I hope your kids love it too!
