These one-pan toasties can be filled however you like, are ready in a flash and taste fantastic. You can simply fill them with eggs, leek and cheese – as in this recipe – or pack them full of vegetables. These toasties can also give some of the more lethargic-looking vegetables in your vegetable drawer a new lease of life. Or old bread. This recipe is a delicious way to use up leftovers. Why not try it with grated carrot, finely chopped kale or Chinese cabbage, Savoy cabbage, tomatoes or sliced mushrooms, courgette, fennel or pepper.
