Delicious Simple Crispy Cheesy Toast with a mixed salad - a perfect simple lunch.
Who doesn't love cheese on toast? It's such a simple meal to make but always thoroughly enjoyed.
Sometimes however that cheese just doesn't seem to go very far on the bread, especially if you want to use a good quality cheddar.
A neat little trick I do is to add the grated cheese to a bowl and then whisk in an egg with a little black pepper. Think of that extra protein which is going to keep you fuller for longer.
You also can't beat a little drizzle of Worcestershire sauce over the top just before you place until the grill to melt. Yummy!!
One thing I hate though is soggy toast, I love my toast nice and crispy and a great way to do that, is to oven bake it with a little mist of cooking oil spray over the top and that toast has an amazing crunch to it.
HOW CAN I ADD A VEGETABLES TO THIS CHEESY TOAST?
I served mine with a mixed salad of baby greens and sliced crisp apple with a CALORIE dressing. Perfect and light for lunch. You could also add some veg to the cheese toast, like thin tomato slices, sauteed mushrooms or slices of onion.
TO MAKE THIS CHEESE TOAST YOU WILL NEED THE FOLLOWING KITCHEN ITEMS:
- Kitchen Scales

This is just how I make it. My version of Welsh rabbet. Add slice of crispy bacon.
