Strawberry Cheesecake French Toast Bake

February the month of love and romance, and totally deserves an awesome and superb breakfast that can be prepared ahead and baked afresh. That is where my Strawberry Cheesecake French Toast bake recipe is needed.
This is one super cool recipe that looks fantastic, and also tastes fantastic. Tastes fantastic, as in like a strawberry cheesecake without all the hassles of making a cheesecake. Like in all the french toast recipe you will have to use old bread slices, milk and egg custard. What makes the difference is the bread slices slathered with cream cheese and strawberry jam, and some of the same ingredients going in the custard as well.
