    It's really good. Basically all of the French toast ingredients put into a baking dish. You can put it together the night before and then refrigerate until baking the next morning. Really easy and yummy.

  • I have nothing figured out other than tonight will be some sort of takeout (late work meetings) and tomorrow (softball night) will probably be meatball subs.

    I think for Wednesday and Thursday I'll just go to @booneybear's.  (Sounds sooooo amazing.)

    I do! Rice lasagna: http://www.365daysofcrockpot.com/2012/10/slow-cooker-meatless-and-gluten-free.html. Enchiladas: ingredients - enchilada sauce, corn tortillas, 1 can black beans (we use trader joes refried black beans), quest fresco and/or cheddar jack. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pour 1 cup sauce into a wide, shallow bowl. Working with one at a time, dip tortillas I. Sauce, shaking off excess, then fill with beans and cheese down center. Roll tortilla around filling and arrange, seam side down, in 8-inch square baking dish. Top with 1/2 cup sauce. Cover tightly with foil and bake until heater through, 10 minutes. Serve with desired toppings.
