To do beans on toast once a week?

I love an on toast dinner, I sometimes have macaroni cheese on toast with leftovers from previous day, but if there isn't any left then I use a box of Marshall's macaroni cheese, it's quick delicious and pretty cheap too. You can tart it up with bits and bobs if you want but it's good enough to enjoy as it is, unlike the horrible orange kraft variety.

It needs to be beans AND cheese on toast. Or maybe a fried egg

Nooo! Toaster must have been at fault. Get a new one.

Beans on toast
Cheese on toast
Cheese on toast with beans on top
Beans on toast with cheese on top
Scrambled egg on toast
Grilled tomatoes on toast
Cheese on toast with ham under the cheese
cheese on toast with sliced tomato under or over the cheese
All of the above but substitute potato waffle for toast
All of the above but make sure you add marmite to the toast - unless there’s tomatoes or ham, then it’s wrong.

Quality easy food, all of them. I do always do it with granary bread because I much prefer it and it’s nice and nubbly. And none of them require you to try to do food prep in the morning (I adore cooking but NOT before I run off to work!).

If it works and they like it then why not?
My only concern would be feeding the same thing so frequently that they go off it; but appreciate that my DC weren't typical 😀.

I do baked potato and cheese or/and coselaw pretty much every Friday in the winter.

My go to quick cook meal is the fresh tortellini with tomato sauce.

Beans once a week is fine.

I also like the tinned pasta shapes you get that are in the shape of whatever the popular kids character is (still seems to be Peppa Pig mostly available).
If I have them on toast I just call it having "shapes on toast".

We like beans on toast with some grated cheese. If we are feeling posh we have the beans that come with little sausages in the tin. You need to add an extra little tin of beans though otherwise there's not enough for 2. I'm 71 and the OM 79 so the UPFs are clearly not doing us much harm. Same topping is also great on a jacket spud (we like lots of extra butter and salt too)

Personally I wouldn't but if it ticks all your boxes why not

@Andthereitis oooh I've never thought to put cheese UNDER the hoops. That's revolutionary.
@PadstowGirl I've never tried potato waffles in a toaster but I have had them cooked on a BBQ which was good.

Chopped onions?
Fried off presumably? (🤞)

Of course, totally normal (provided your kids actually like it! I hate the thought of beans on toast but sounds like thats just me)

Beans on toast is a treat, and the only question is whether you have grated cheese on top too! I did go through a hoops phase, but they are a bit soggy.

I love beans on toast. I have it 2-3 times a week and have done for 53 years and I’m still going strong.
Slow cookers have their place but my mind is slightly blown by people who have time to set them going before work.
There are loads of easy meals you can chuck together in under 10 minutes but beans on toast can be done in under 3 minutes and you don’t have to worry about having them in. There are always beans.
If you feel you need extra veg, a spoonful of chopped onion from the freezer is nice and barely adds 10 seconds to the whole operation.

I ruined our toaster cooking potato waffles in it. They melted 🤯

Ikr? I quite often just have a bagel. Perhaps I’ll die at 50.

I've got a feeling the 7% that have said YABU have only done that because they thought YABU to even ask this question 🤣

Oh yes, I love “on toast” dinner- also toasties and soup.
DD has that sort of thing quite often as they have “snacky tea” at nursery at 4.30 and she’s not that hungry by 6pm. It will be similar at school.
Omelette is also a favourite.

Terrible parenting, you should report yourself to social services immediately, they will complete a safeguarding and send you on a cookery course, hopefully in France.

Beans on toast indeed.

Clutches pearls before fainting.

Beans on buttered toast was one of my fav childhood meals and is still a treat today 🙈 my mum was a v lazy cook haha and I've adopted the same habits. Absolutely nothing wrong with it and so good in fibre! Can top with cheese or an egg if worried about being filling enough, or just give them as big a portion as they want. Beans with sausages also work very well on toast.

Yes! We love a toaster potato waffle with beans!
Also like a poached egg on a toaster potato waffle

No need to mess about with beans on toast to win the mother of the year award. It's all good just as it is,

@MollyAndMuck you could always add a different tin of beans to the baked beans , I sometimes put drained mixed beans and baked beans together (or you can buy heinz five beans which are super expensive! ) extra fiber and really tasty.
I don't like cheesy beans, but I'm in a minority I think.

I convinced mine that oatmeal with their choice of fruits was the best dinner ever. I also always made extra waffles and pancakes to freeze for meals. When they got older I made a large Sunday soup and a casserole to have a few times a week.

There’s nothing wrong with beans on toast.

What on earth is wrong with beans on toast?! Of course it’s fine. Mine have it quite regularly, it’s lovely
