Yield: 6 servings 

Ingredients:
Cream Cheese Filling:
8 ounces of low or no fat soft cream cheese
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
Zest of one lemon
1/3 cup sugar
1 loaf of packaged, plain, sliced French Bread (small sized loaf)

Egg Batter:
6 eggs or egg beater equivalent
2 1/2 cups of non-fat half & half
1/3 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg

Warm Orange Sauce:
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon sugar
1 cup fresh quartered strawberries

Instructions:
Stir together in a small bowl the cream cheese, lemon juice, zest and sugar. Set aside. Blend the egg, half & half, sugar, vanilla and nutmeg in a large flat bottom bowl. Set aside. Using two slices of the French bread, spread about 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese filling on one side. Place other slice on top and lightly press together. Dip the sandwich into the batter, turn once and place on a lightly oiled griddle that has been preheated on medium heat. Cook until lightly browned on each side, about 3 minutes. Serve warm with your favorite topping or the warm orange/strawberry sauce.

Warm Orange Sauce:
Heat in a small pan over low heat, orange juice and sugar till disolved. Add strawberries and just barely warm. Place in a serving bowl to spoon over the French Toast.

Serve with thin sliced low fat slices of ham. Hot maple syrup or powdered sugar sprinkled on top can also be used.
