Make some 'cheap' toast.

By 'cheap' I mean the sort of skice of bread that you'd find in a cheap loaf - thin sliced bread.

Toast a couple of slices, as soon as they smell they're burning (as all cheap toast does!) press the eject button and remove. Instantly spread THINLY with your favourite spread, add a layer of Cucumber & Mint raita, closely followed by a touch of Spicey Mango Chutney.

If this concoction is still remotely warm by the time it hits your taste buds, you will thank me.

Otherwise you'll be left wondering what you've just done.

Whats Skice? :)

My favorite toasty is toasted fluff..

Grab a slice of bread and put a healthy slather of Fluff on it.

Throw it in the toaster oven and toast until a golden brown.

MMMmmmmm

Just doesn't sound nice to me :(

Now, take that bread, throw it under the grill, toast nicely, flip over, slather with butter, sprinkle with garlic powder, cover in thick sliced cheddar cheese, a bit of salt on top, back into the grill till bubbly..

oh..ya..thats the business...

If I burn toast, I will throw it away. I like my toast of the lighter brown side. :D

Toast is good with butter and honey. toasted cheese is another favorite. I also like toast with JAM (I don't like to use jelly) with Grape Jam my favorite and Blackberry Jam the 2nd.

I just ate lunch and this is making me hungry again! :(

Handed burnt toast, I was told to scrape the curse off it and make do. And to shut up. Else there would be no more free goods and services to complain about.

try to get our kids to do that (but usually it'd end up on mommy's plate)

Now that we have a big dog, things like that go in her bowl.

is my fav toast topper.

Better yet, put peanut butter on toast while still warm, then honey. It gets all melty. Mmmm!

I love honey on toast. Unfortunately, it doesn't love me. I'm allergic to it.

My mother forgot a few years ago, and handed me something and said "here try this". Boy that was good, so I ate the sample, then had some with dinner. Guess who ended up in the Emergency Room? I told the Doc that I didn't know why I was throwing up and swelling up, then my mom yells, "Oh my God, I've poisoned you!" That's when she remembered that I was allergic to honey and that honey was a key component to the dish.

Especially since honey is so natural, and it doesn't spoil.

You might want to see if it's all honeys, or just specific ones. Try googling honey and you'll see there's several kinds. Alfalfa, Clover, etc.

I love cucumber sandwiches.

You need English cucumber to make a decent one. They
have a thinner skin than American cucumber and are
seedless.

Slice your cucumber thin and season lightly with salt and
pepper. Using a firm bread- Wonder Bread won't do-
spread a layer of cream cheese and add a layer of the
cucumber. You may also add a layer of watercress if that
is to your taste. Remove the bread crusts and enjoy.

When we were growing up, we had gardens and grew cucumbers, some for pickles some for the table. For dinner, as a side dish (relish tray type) she would cut off the skin, cut slices and put them in a vinegar water solution.

If my father got hungry before bed, he would sneak into the kitchen and make a sandwhich of the leftover cucumber slices, with just butter, salt, pepper and white bread. He grew up in the depression, and I think he was fond of them from when he was a kid.

wow james..that brought back memories of being a kid..my mom did that too!! cumcumber\vinegar..
i was never very fond of it, but occasionsally would have a slice.

There was a little place near here that served cucumber sandwiches as a lunch. Boy were they good!

Calling it an allergy probably isn't correct. It's more a lack of something that allows me to metabolize it. My Grandmother had the problem, and of her 30+ grandchildren about a third of us have the problem. I can tolerate very small quantities if I don't have them too close together, but as little as a teaspoon twice in a couple of weeks is enough to make me miserable.
