Homemade Strawberry Bread Pudding

One of my all time favorite desserts is Bread Pudding.  Like always, my dear hubby brings home all these treats and gourmet breads.....so delicious and so bad.  I recently decided to go outside the box with the yummy Strawberry bread he brought home.  Being that Valentines is coming up and is all things pink and red, I had to make it.  I have never heard or seen any flavored bread puddings, just sauces, so I would like to think of this as my very own creation.

I knew I would be starting the new "Slim by the Summer" challenge with a group of fantastic other blogging ladies at the start of the week so I made it the day before so I could enjoy a piece.  The challenge started this week by the way if you would like to join us.   Something like this would not be welcome in the first phase of kickoff for my lifestyle change.  Everything in moderation is all good, unless you are a dessert{sugar} addict like myself then it has to be limited greatly.  This was the last indulging dessert I had.

Such beautiful colors!

Recipe:

* 23 ounces of Fresh{turned stale} Strawberry bread. 

-ours came from Abbott Farms.

* 2 egg whites

* Approx. 2 cups Milk - I just poured some in.

* Honey

* Marshmallow Fluff

Whisk your milk and egg whites together.

Tear your bread into nice chunks and drop it into your mixing bowl. 

Fold your bread into your wet mix until it is all covered. (the size will reduce)

Butter your casserole dish or pan. I  used a round casserole dish.

Pour your mix in and press down.  

* I don't like to smash it all into the bowl so I I just press it all down until it is even and has a nice flat surface but has some air holes left.  It will cook down.

350 degrees for about 20 minutes.  Just watch it, it will puff slightly. 

Pull it out and pour about 1/4 cup of honey on top and spread it out. 

Pop it back into the oven for about 10 more minutes. 

Pour about 1 cup of Marshmallow fluff on top and spread and it will turn into that gooey deliciousness all by itself.
