This week's new recipe is a delicious savoury thyme, sage and parmesan French toast. And it might just be a new favourite, served with a fresh crisp green salad - the perfect lunch or lazy dinner. The thyme, sage, and parmesan make the perfect savoury team!

For this recipe, I teamed up with the guys from Westgold. Their rich and creamy butter works perfectly in this French toast recipe. I've been using their high-quality butter in my cooking and baking for the past few months and have been loving it. It's made with milk from grass-fed cows and using a traditional churning process. Be sure to look out for them when shopping at Woolworths in Australia.

As always, please let me know if you make the recipe @gatherandfeast and feel free to ask any questions.
