Pineapple French Toast with Ambrosia Salsa

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.
