 Crunchy Oven French Toast (From the cookbook "Betty Crocker's Healthy New Choices")
If you love the flavor of 100 percent pure maple syrup, use it in place of the honey.

• 2 Tbs. margarine
• 5 Tbs. wheat germ
• 1/4 cup orange juice
• 2 Tbs. honey
• 3/4 cup fat-free cholesterol-free egg product or 6 egg whites
• 12 slices French bread, each 1 inch thick

Heat oven to 450 degrees.  Melt margarine in jelly roll pan, 15 1/2 x 10 1/2 x 1 inch, in oven; spread evenly in pan.  Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of the wheat germ evenly over margarine.  Beat orange juice, honey and egg product with hand beater until foamy.  Soak each side of bread in egg mixture for 5 minutes.  Drizzle any remaining egg mixture over bread.  Sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons wheat germ evenly over bread.  Bake about 10 minutes or until bottoms are golden brown; turn.  Bake 6-8 minutes longer or until bottoms are golden brown.

Peanut Butter & Banana Burritos

• 1 Tbs. margarine
• 4 bananas, sliced
• 4 medium flour tortillas
• 4 Tbs. peanut butter
• cinnamon
• sugar or other sweetener (optional)

In a medium skillet on medium heat, melt the margarine.  Add bananas, cinnamon, and sweetener if using.  Stir well, and cook for about five minutes, stirring occasionally.  Meanwhile, prepare the tortillas:  Warm the tortillas briefly in the microwave to make them pliable, then spread about 1 Tbs. peanut butter on each tortilla.  Divide the cooked banana equally onto the four tortillas.  Seal the burritos on both ends and place in a heated skillet, about a minute per side.  This melts the peanut butter and also seals the tortillas.  These burritos are excellent for breakfast or for a snack.  Serves 4
