Pineapple French Toast with Ambrosia Salsa

(source: Austin American Statesman, April 7, 1993)

20 oz can pineapple chunks in juice
1 cup strawberry halves
1/4 cup toasted flaked coconut
4 tablespoons sugar, divided
1 10 ounce loaf French or Italian bread
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon butter

Drain pineapple, reserving 3/4 cup juice and pineapple pieces separately.
In a small bowl, prepare ambrosia salsa by combining strawberries, coconut,
reseved pineapple pieces and 2 tablespoons sugar, set aside.

Cut bread in 3/4 inch slices.  In a 15 by 10 inch jelly roll pan, arrange
bread in a single layer, set aside.  In a large bowl, beat eggs, milk,
vanilla, salt and remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and reserved pineapple
juice, pour over bread, turning slices to coat completely.  Cover and
refrigerate overnight or until all liquid is absorbed, about 1 1/2 hours.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter.  Add bread a few pieces
at a time and cook until browned on both sides, turning bread once, and 
adding more butter if necessary.  Serve with ambrosia salsa.  Serves 6.
