A Toast to French Toast #cascadeshiningreviews - Cascade Platinum Party 2 #Giveaway

Thanks to Cascade Platinum and Double Duty Divas I am able to host two awesome cooking parties! My party guests witness first-hand the powerful cleaning ability of Cascade Platinum. Each guest will get to take home a full size Cascade Platinum and Cascade Platinum Rinse Aid as a thank you for coming, plus yummy food and good company! Check out my first party HERE.

For the second party I made French Toast (courtesy of The Food Network and Alton Brown) and Mimosas.
French Toast Ingredients:
•1 cup half-and-half
•3 large eggs
•2 tablespoons honey, warmed in microwave for 20 seconds
•1/4 teaspoon salt
•8 (1/2-inch) slices day-old or stale country loaf, brioche or challah bread
•4 tablespoons butter

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. In a medium size mixing bowl, whisk together the half-and-half, eggs, honey and salt. When ready to cook, pour custard mixture into a pie pan. Dip bread into mixture, allowing it to soak for 30 seconds on each side. Then remove to a cooling rack that is sitting in a sheet pan, and allow to sit for 1 to 2 minutes. Over medium-low heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a 10-inch nonstick saute pan. Place 2 slices of bread at a time into the pan and cook until golden brown, approximately 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from pan and place on rack in oven for 5 minutes. Repeat with all 8 slices. Serve immediately with maple syrup, whipped cream or fruit

Mimosa Ingredients:
•Champagne
•Orange juice

Make them by mixing equal parts champagne and orange juice. Simple and easy! 

More About Cascade
In 1953, Cascade entered the automatic dishwashing market with claims of “spotless dishes” to the four percent of households with dishwashers. The fast-moving world of household innovations was just in its beginning stages, and Cascade stayed at the forefront for the next 50 years by developing a range of automatic dishwashing products perfect for a variety of families, needs, and lifestyles. Today, with decades of experience and dishwashers in more than 60-percent of households, Cascade continues to grow, striving for immaculate dishes every time with its brilliant automatic dishwashing powders, gels, pacs, and additives.
My new favorite item is the Rinse Aid! Outstanding spot and film protection. Helps rinse away food particles and residues that can cause spots on dishes. Great drying action. Etch protection helps prevent further damage to your dishes.
