Vegan French Toast for Michelle

[Guest guest]

Michelle: Here are 3 recipes I found for you. The first one was posted here by

Ellen C. awhile back -- thanks Ellen!! Basically, for vegan French Toast, what

you want to do is replace the milk -- soy or rice milk and, of course, the eggs.

The eggs can be replaced with an equal amount of blended soft tofu. The

question I have is that if blended tofu is used then, do you think, just water

should be used instead of soymilk -- otherwise, would the mixture be too

" soy-y " , do you think? I've never tried any of these recipes myself. I'm the

only one in my family who doesn't eat eggs, and I was never a huge fan of French

Toast anyway, so, what's the point? <g> If you try any or all of these, will

you let us know how they are? Thanks!
