Chilli cheese toast is a great snack recipe.It is a wonderful tiffin recipe which reminds me of my childhood.Those days,oven was not common.We would see patties and toasts at our local bakery and wonder when we could have those.It was a mini bread pizza when we didn't know what a pizza was an that chilli also stood for capsicums!
Kids today are so aware of global cuisine.Sometimes I envy their knowledge at this age.This is a protein packed recipe.It is a great way of feeding picky kids veggies.Grate some cheese on top and make them finish it.
Yes, they will still try to leave out veggies!
Well, we gotta ensure this doesn't happen.Loads of kids mimic parents too.If they see us avoid eating some type of food,they will find a way of taking it as an example.If we do not change,then we have a pesky tyke who will definitely show us a strong disagreement to the food served.Eating out is good once in a while but big corporations do not think of being healthy.Most parents want kids to eat healthy and on time.
Seriously, kids improve habits of parents big time!
It is a great recipe if someone is coming home.Great for any party.You can also make cheese toast on pan.Garlic cheese toast on cast iron pan is wonderful with some soup.
Needs less baking as you can get any basic bread for the toast.Put any type of mixed veggie and a great variation is ready.
You can even sneak in some chopped baby spinach if you have a picky kid.
No one can refuse a hot cheesy cheese toast.
