I am sitting here in the middle of this crazy” bomb cyclone” thinking of what we can do next……I wanted to find a recipe that would use ingredients that most people had on hand at home and would be a comfort food to enjoy during this storm..We are definitely making this tonight!!!  Bon Appetit!!!!

INGREDIENTS

• 2 cups milk
• 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter, more for greasing pan
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ⅓ cup sugar
•  Pinch salt
• ½ loaf bread cut into 2-inch cubes (about 5 to 6 cups)
• 2 eggs, beaten

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a small saucepan over low heat, warm milk, butter, vanilla, sugar and salt. Continue cooking just until butter melts; cool. Meanwhile, butter a 4-to-6-cup baking dish and fill it with cubed bread.
2. Add eggs to cooled milk mixture and whisk; pour mixture over bread. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes, or until custard is set but still a little wobbly and edges of bread have browned. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Our next Theater outing will be to the Broadway revival of the Iconic musical, Carousel (which returns to Broadway after 2 decades!!!!!) on March 6th at 8:00.  The tickets are in the Orchestra section and are $140 each.   Email me nicolesteinthal@me.com to reserve your tickets!!!


This show comes to life starring Joshua Henry (Hamilton), Tony award nominee Jessie Muller (Beautiful, Waitress), and Renae Fleming in her first ever Broadway musical.  


The reviews have been fabulous…
