French Toast

It’s getting toasty.

Part of the Full Form Challenge, because your best sessions start with a happy belly.

This is the kind of breakfast you don’t overthink anymore.

Simple, familiar, and something you’ll actually want to make, which is exactly where you want to be at the end of this challenge.

Did you know?

Cooking and cooling carbohydrate-rich foods like bread can slightly change their structure, increasing what’s known as resistant starch.

This type of carbohydrate isn’t fully digested in the small intestine and instead feeds beneficial gut bacteria, supporting digestion and overall metabolic health.

And familiar meals require less mental effort to prepare, which makes them more likely to stick around long after the challenge ends.

Which is kind of the whole point.
