Recipe: French Toast Casserole

by Andrea Deckard on April 19, 2009

I make this dish for just about every MOPS meeting our group brings breakfast.  It’s super easy and always goes over well.  At the last meeting, a few moms wanted the recipe so I wanted to publish it here for everyone.  I will admit, I actually got this from a previous year’s MOPS newsletter so [...]
