Frozen strawberries are often more affordable and available year-round.

Crack 2 eggs into a bowl and whisk them together.

Add 1 cup of heavy whipping cream, 1 teaspoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the eggs and mix until combined.

Cut brioche bread into thick slices and dip each slice into the egg mixture.

Melt butter in a frying pan over medium-low heat.

Cook the dipped bread slices in the frying pan for about 2 minutes on each side or until browned.

Once the French toast is done, set it aside and start frying bacon in the same pan using the leftover butter.

Cook the bacon to your liking and then remove it from the pan.

Take pre-boiled potatoes, season them with Tony's Creole seasoning, and fry them in the leftover bacon grease for about 10-15 minutes until golden brown on both sides.

Remove the potatoes from the pan and place them on a paper towel to soak up excess grease.

In the same pan, add eggs seasoned with salt and pepper, and cook them to your liking, adding pepper jack cheese if desired.

For the cream cheese sauce, mix 2 tablespoons of cream cheese with 3-4 tablespoons of powdered sugar until combined.

Slowly add about 8 tablespoons of heavy whipping cream to the cream cheese mixture until it reaches a drizzleable consistency.

Decorate the French toast with sliced strawberries, some cut in half and some cut into thirds.

Drizzle the cream cheese sauce over the decorated French toast and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
