Would rate this dish a definite *5*, even though rating stars did not appear. Looks very easy, plan to make **soon**. I like the idea of using whole wheat french toast. Very clever indeed!! K.

Delicious and easy. A really pretty casserole, too.

This spring brunch bake turns out so nice and so delicious, it's one my family asks for any time we have the ingredients. I make it gladly for them, as we all love it and eat it whenever we can. It's a keeper for sure and going in my recipe box.

I used whole wheat french bread and mixed fat-free & part-skim mozzarella cheese. It turned out AMAZING!
