Toast is what is for breakfastโฆand sometimes also lunch and dinner.
Iโm not so sure what it is with me and toast lately? It could be because it is so easy to make and something to grab and make in a hurry. Or perhaps it is because I have a blank canvas (aka the toast) in which to create endless masterpieces or food combinations. At any rate it is what I am craving nowadays.
Toast of course is nothing new to me; in fact I can recall actually loving the way my mom would make cinnamon toast for me in the morning as a child. She would pop the bread into the toaster and I would always (and still do) like my toast to be a little brownโฆnot burnt but very toasted. Anyway when the toast would be ready she would quickly remove it from the toaster and spread the cold butter straight from the fridge onto the warm piece of toast. The warmth of the toast would of course immediately melt the butter into all of the tiny cracks and crevices of the crispy toast. Then she would grab her special mixture of cinnamon and sugar that she would mix together in a recycled spice container with no label, but everyone in the household knew exactly what it was. The mixture would stick to the melted butter and be ready to eat. The smell and taste of cinnamon toast is like nothing else and it certainly brings me back to a place of comfort.
But enough about that already…let’s toast!
Some delicious toast ideas:
- almond butter, sliced banana, and cocoa powder toast
- pizza toast – sauce, pepperoni, mozzarella, red pepper flakes
- cheese toast – sliced cheese and nutritional yeast
- avocado toast – mashed avocado, chia seeds, sea kelp, sriracha
- cinnamon toast – butter, sugar, cinnamon
- cream cheese with homemade strawberry jam
- roasted red pepper hummus, golden tomatoes, baby spinach
Now its your turn….How do you like your toast?
I’ve been craving toast lately so this post is very timely. I either need to make myself a loaf of bread or go to Whole Foods one day and get a loaf of bread that is gluten-free and egg-free. I keep seeing avacado toast and I want to give it a try. Adding sea kelp sounds really yummy.
I love avocado toast and the sea kelp was a nice addition. I think that is what happened to me…I stocked up on sprouted bread from Publix and that is all I wanted.
I like the pizza toast! And I was hoping you’d have an avocado one in the midst.
My friend childhood toast was a cinnamon sugar butter toast. I’ll never forget that first time I had it!
The pizza toast was yummy and of course I could not forget about avocado toast ๐
Yum! I eat a lot of toast – usually with almond butter and honey. The pizza toast looks really good ๐
Thank you and almond butter toast is so delicious ๐
