Kat's Macadamia French Toast

4 eggs, beaten
2/3 cup orange juice
1/3 cup milk
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 loaf (8 oz.) Italian bread, cut in 1-inch slices
1/2 cup diced macadamia nuts
With a wire whisk, beat together eggs, orange juice, milk, sugar, nutmeg and vanilla. 
Place bread in a single layer in a tight fitting casserole pan. 
Pour milk mixture over bread. 
Cover and refrigerate overnight, turning once. 
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. 
Spray baking sheet or jellyroll pan with vegetable shortening. 
Arrange soaked bread slices in a single layer on pan. 
Sprinkle with macadamia nuts. 
Bake until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. 
Serve with maple syrup and butter, if desired. 

Nothing so obstinately stands in the way of all sorts of progress as pride of opinion; while nothing is so foolish and baseless.
