We didn't have a lot of money for extras when I grew up either. My mother used to make maple syrup using water, sugar and maple extract. We didn't know any different...
On savory french toast. My ex wife picks hers up like toast and dips them in ketchup. So, she never wanted cinnamon in the mix. I felt it was a bit blasphemous.

I like French toast made using one of the Pepperidge Farm Swirl breads or raisin bread.
If you are not a fan of French toast it would be easy enough to make a grilled cheese sandwich stuffed with some thinly sliced fruit or vegetables for you and French toast for your wife.
I had trouble getting my french toast to cook up toasty. I tried to soak the bread quickly in the french toast mix so as not to get overly soaked. I fried up the pieces in a bit of Crisco and still couldn't make them come out anything but mushy. Also, I've got to get some maple syrup that is a bit less sweet. I ended up taking one bite of the french toast and syrup and then drinking a lot of milk after each bite.
It's not the same as I remember making it at home, not nearly like it is at an IHOP these days.
I always cook my french toast in unsalted butter on medium heat. I just prefer the flavor. It seems to crisp up nicely.
