Blueberry Salted Caramel French Toast Casserole

For the holidays, try this Blueberry Salted Caramel French Toast Casserole for breakfast, brunch, or even dessert, served warm with vanilla ice cream!

Friends, our family is so in love with blueberries! We eat them year-round in our home, even in the winter, when you can buy organic frozen blueberries!

But let’s talk today — the dead of summer— the perfect months for entertaining outside, serving casual meals, brunches, light dinners, barbecues. The list goes on and on.

I came across this quote I had written in my journal awhile back:

“I shall never forget the first time I saw blueberries served on the table,” American author Jack London wrote in 1906. “I had never seen blueberries before, and yet, at the sight of them, there leaped up in my mind memories of dreams wherein I had wandered through swampy land eating my fill of them. My mother set before me a dish of the berries. I filled my spoon, but before I raised it to my mouth, I knew just how they would taste. Nor was I disappointed. It was the same tang that I had tasted a thousand times in my sleep.”

Yup, blueberries are really that succulent and wonderful. Thank you Jack, for the reminder of why we love them so!

Holiday entertaining

Perfect for July Fourth entertaining, I say forget all the party details and just make a good brunch for your friends and family.

If I’m going to worry about anything at all for holiday entertaining, I’d say it’s the food. Food is the most important (other than the people), and I say forget about the party details, centerpieces, and making everything look perfect.

Just set out some good food.

The rest will come together when the guests show up!

Or, when you sit around the table with your family to enjoy a meal.

Family is everything, the sweetness of life.

Blueberry Salted Caramel French Toast Casserole

Add a delicious blueberry dish to the table, and you’ll have the most wonderful holiday.

This recipe you can make ahead and bake the next day. How easy is that?

Super easy, and the dark brown sugar on top, mixed with Thomas’s Salted Caramel English Muffins is, well, quite tasty, I must say.

If for some reason you cannot find these English muffins in your store, use regular, but add 1/2 tsp. cinnamon to the recipe.

ENJOY! And Happy Fourth of July entertaining!
