My Secret Most Special Incredibly Awesome Toast Recipes

Steps:

• You will need a frying pan with a lid.
• Heat frying pan on medium heat, butter the bread on one side.
• Put in the pan and butter the side that is up.
• When browned turn over the slice and put on first: the ham, then pineapple and then the cheese on the toasted side.
• Lower the heat, cover the pan with a lid and cook for a few minutes or until the cheese has melted.
• Sprinkle with some paprika powder and serve.

Steps:

• Toast your bread. While it's in the toaster, halve, pit and peel your avocado and scoop out the flesh with a spoon then pop it in a bowl.
• Mash the avocado with a fork and mix in a splash of lime juice. Fold the cheese into the avocado mixture, leaving some bits chunky.
• Spread the avocado mixture onto your toast and top with salt, pepper and a drizzle of olive oil.

Steps:

• Put a wok or frying pan over the heat while you thickly slice the mushrooms.
• Tip the butter into the pan and when sizzling add the mushrooms and cook over a high heat, stirring occasionally until the mushrooms are tender and juicy.
• Meanwhile toast and lightly butter the bread and put on 2 plates.
• Stir the mustard and some salt and pepper into the mushrooms with 4 tbsp of the sour cream.
• When lightly mixed, pile the mushrooms and their creamy sauce on the toast.
• Spoon the last of the soured cream on top, sprinkle over the chives and grind over some black pepper.

Steps:

• Each grain of quinoa (unless pre-washed) is covered in a soapy substance called saponin. It tastes bitter and will affect the taste of your quinoa if you don't remove it.
• TO REMOVE THE SAPONIN:.
• First measure the quinoa and put it into a large bowl. Fill it with clean water. Let is soak for a little while. Then, using a wire whisk swish the quinoa around until you see a soapy residue come out of the quinoa. You might have to do this for a few minutes to get all the saponin off.
• Once the soapy residue is off strain the quinoa in a fine mesh sieve then rinse the quinoa with fresh water and set aside.
• Now get a big heavy saute pan (I used a 12" stainless steel pan) and heat it up on medium low. Put one cup of the wet quinoa into the saute pan (anymore and it will be over crowded). Using your wire whisk start moving the quinoa around the pan.
• Once it gets hot, the water is absorbed and the quinoa starts popping you know it's finally drying out. Keep swishing it around with the whisk until the grains of quinoa start to brown. You will see it transform before your eyes and it will smell nutty.
• When it's sufficiently done, remove from the pan and place in a bowl to cool.
• Store it in a jar in the fridge so it will last a while. When ever you want some just go get it.
• It pays to do 3-4 cups at a time so you have some on hand.
• Bon Appetit!
