Nice but be very careful with tomatoes in toasties, they get fiercely hot and stick to the roof of your mouth 😱

I know I've had them before lol 🙂 x

I'm used to doing it now lol, I have a real fancy for fried bread!! But that's not so great :( or could I class it as healthier as I use wholemeal? LOL x

Well, if you butter the outside of your toastie, it could almost be fried bread.

If you're still trying to gain weight, I can't think you could do any catastrophic damage unless you main-lined on it.
 
On ballyan day (day before payday old Lancastrian phrase)
We would have bean breville’s or toasties.
Basically posh beans on toast but very nice I fondly remember from 30 odd years ago.
I think it would be nice with grated cheese in cheese ‘n’ beans toasted

I'm not sure if I will be using butter on the outside yet lol, I did that before but I've heard that its also rather nice if you do the outside with mayo so may give that a bash as there is loads in the house haha xx
 
My go to fav toasty is strong cheese and onion. I’m thinking about trying a bubble and squeak toasty.

@Kaylz. Have some fried bread , a slice or even two will do you no harm you need the calories and most importantly you will enjoy it. Topped off with something else like bacon, sausage , scrambled egg etc you could try eggy toast a slice of bread dipped in egg and fried oh yummmmmm I’ve made myself feel hungry now and I’ve had brekky

Oh yeah, has to be strong cheese!! Haha, may well be a cheese and onion toastie on Tuesday lol

As for the fried bread I am so tempted to do that today as I'll have the pan on for my bacon anyway haha, and oh I haven't had eggy bread for years, I used to love it! Thanks may well have that at some point this week too! the egg has to be seasoned well with fresh ground black pepper for me though lol :D x

I used to add some Worcestershire sauce to mine , not had any for ages.
 
I virtually lived on these for 3 years at Uni: spread the outside with butter (otherwise it used to stick). Spread the inside with a thin layer of tomato purée and a sprinkle of oregano, add a generous layer of mature cheddar. Pizza flavour toasties!
 
Cheese and Branston was always my favourite filling.

Radders, that sounds so good, it's almost making me go out and buy a new breville!
 
Well cheese and tomato today, possibly the same tomorrow to get the pack of tomatoes used up, maybe cheese and onion on Wednesday lol, thinking tuna and cheese on Thursday as trying to keep cost down this week haha, oh get you @Beck S all posh with your breville, I just got a Tesco 2 slicer for a tenner!! Haha :D x
 
Tinned sardines and cheese. Yummy.
 
Cheese and onion or cheese and marmite however I very, very seldom have them now as bread spikes my BG. Drat!!
 
Cheese,ham and mustard or I’ve been known to put an egg in one - love both!

My Mum and Dad bought me a breville when I went to Uni and it lasted for so long. It's just my goto brand now 😛
