Blueberry Stuffed French Toast Recipe + David Bromstad Designs + A Giveaway!!

August 21, 2014 by Fotini Filed Under: coffee creamer, Coffee-mate, David Bromstad, designer, french toast recipe, inspire, recipe-1, recipes, Target 8 Comments

Are you a coffee drinker? Let me tell you, it is my mode of survival! Without it, I’m no fun, ha! And with it this is how I feel…. “Given enough coffee I could rule the world”! Can you relate? I do, however, use creamer in my coffee, always have. So you can imagine I was pretty stoked when design star David Bromstad partnered with Coffee-mate and Target, making a splash with the limited edition bottles inspired my coffee and Coffee-mate. The new David Bromstad designed bottles (French Vanilla and Hazelnut flavors) will be available at Target stores nationwide! Why am I excited about that you say? Well, one I LOVE David Bromstad, have you seen the designs that man comes up with? Brilliant! And two, I’m a coffee freak (not to mention I’m Target obsessed), so this was basically a win-win for me!
It’s a lot of fun when you can become inspired by a product you use to think outside the box! Not only do I love coffee creamer in my coffee (French Vanilla is my favorite!), but I like to explore recipes with it too! I recently made an absolutely delicious french toast recipe using the French Vanilla creamer. My kids and husband just raved over it, so I will certainly be making it again!
Here’s the recipe:
Coffee-mate coffee creamer, flavor desired
3 large eggs
vanilla
cinnamon
sliced bread
butter
syrup
blueberries (optional)
Start by cracking your eggs into a bowl. Mix in your coffee creamer, pouring just enough to thicken the mixture (about 2-4 tablespoons). Add a teaspoon of vanilla and a dash of cinnamon. Grab a fork and mix well. Heat your frying pan to medium heat and melt a little butter, dip your slice of bread covering both sides into the egg mixture and place it onto the heated pan. Cook until slightly brown on each side. This mixture was enough to make 7 slices of french toast. Grab your blueberries, rinse and place them in a small bowl. Grab a fork and begin to mash them up, add a little bit of water to create a syrup-y mixture. Place the blueberry syrup between two pieces of french toast. You can add a small amount of syrup on top or a little powered sugar. This breakfast is full of flavor and simple to make!
Can you believe a little coffee creamer inspired all that? For more inspired fun, snap a photo of the newly designed bottles and share it on Facebook with the hashtag #CMInspiresSweepsEntry for a chance to win a year’s worth of Coffee-mate, $500 Target GiftCards, and a signed print from David Bromstad!

Red, White & Blue Berry Trifle

July 1, 2014 by Fotini Filed Under: berry trifle, desserts, patriotic recipes, recipes, red white and blue 4 Comments

Are you looking for a dessert to completely wow your guests this Fourth of July? Look no further!! I am sharing one of my family favorites, and once you taste it, it won’t be hard to see why! This berry trifle is full of flavor and savors your sweet tooth!

The recipe is as follows:
Graham cracker crust
1 1/2 cups finely crushed graham cracker
1/3 cup white sugar
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Crush graham crackers to fine consistency, pour into a mixing bowl and combine all ingredients until evenly combined. With a fork push the graham cracker mix onto the bottom of a mason jar. Continue for the desired amount of jars and refrigerate for at least 40 minutes. I used Duncan Hines strawberry pie filling that I bought on clearance at Target and spooned it on top of the crust. Next, I added a dollop of cooled whipped cream. Add a few blueberries to garnish on top and there you have it! Absolutely delicious and perfectly patriotic!These are great because you can make them before hand and put them in the fridge to cool further until serving. They are the perfect single serving and they’re just as good the next day too!
