Been up all night no real worries just couldn’t sleep so sat downstairs til OH gets up for work. Obviously feeling hungry so I’ve just eaten 2 pieces white toast and marmite, I’m on a diet and have forgotten how tasty it is and I want some more! Don’t really know why I’m posting but just to remind you all how absolutely lush it is. It was my go to food post nights too .

I love marmite on toast and marmite crisps 🤤

Hot marmite

My DS's favourite quick and easy dinner is marmite pasta - mix marmite and butter together, then toss with cooked pasta. Absolutely brilliant. Also marmite bread - like garlic bread, but made with marmite butter instead of garlic butter.

I haven't been able to get Marmite in Sainsburys for weeks Angry

Baked beans with marmite on toast. Delicious and almost as good at curing hangovers as a Big Mac.

I think I can admit here that a fried egg bap with Marmite and cheese was our breakfast of champions here today. It was all DD13 fault, it was her idea.... Not often i get to blame the teens for stuff :)

Don't buy actual Marmite though.

You need supermarket own brand yeast extract.

Exactly the same as Marmite, just cheaper! Sainsbury also do a lower salt version.

Cheesy marmite pasta

Oh man, marmite on buttered white toast is the food of the gods. Really craving it now...

I remember one fun night at university when a friend and I got stoned and ploughed our way through an entire loaf’s worth of marmite on toast.

hot marmite and dip tiger bread into it. use real butter

LOVE marmite on warm buttery toast. Not too much, just very thinly spread 🤤

pleasestoprainingplease · 21/05/2020 23:31

Why did I open this thread 🙈 marmite on buttery white toast (not too much) is my absolute fav and I'm on a diet. But now all I want is warm buttery marmite on toast 🤤 so many people in real life I know just don't like it!

TakemedowntoPotatoCity · 22/05/2020 03:46

I have gone marmite crazy again after not having it for years. It's pretty healthy in itself, not so much with the endless slices of white bread and butter to go with it!

Pertella · 22/05/2020 07:40

Yes, I have to make my own marmite on toast as the ratio of toast to butter and marmite is easy to get wrong Grin

megletthesecond · 22/05/2020 07:43

Treasure that marmite. It seems to be going through a phase of going out of stock. DS might have to go cold turkey.
I had to stop eating it when I went gluten free. I sniff the jar occasionally.

megletthesecond · 22/05/2020 07:44

Now I want marmite spaghetti 😭😭.

Marmite on the toast for Beans on Toast is amazing

My default breakfast is 2 slices of toast, 1 with marmite, one with peanut butter. We buy both in big tubs. Marmite was one of the few things I could keep down down when I had hyperemisis, but no butter on the toast.

DS always gets Marmite cashews in his stocking!

sueelleker · 22/05/2020 09:12

"Hot Marmite" Yes! Much nicer than hot Bovril. I got some of the limited edition Marmite (XO?) when it came out. It wasn't exactly stronger, more a deeper flavour.

Missingthesea · 13/06/2020 00:26

There was something about Marmite in the Quiz of the Week on the BBC News website. Apparently there's not so much being manufactured atm because the fall in beer production due to pubs and bars being closed means there's a shortage of the Brewer's Yeast it's made from!

Marmite on white buttery toast is yum, but also good on dense, nutty brown as long as the bread has squidgy.

Marmite and cucumber sandwiches will always be my favourite sandwich ever.

What??? Spoil lovely marmite with stinky cucumber? Pervert! Wink

Marmite and crisp sandwiches, though... those are good.

enjoyingthequiet · 13/06/2020 05:49

Ooh......hot marmite. Going to have to try that.

Marmite cashews are AMAZING. I ate a packet whilst going round the supermarket last week, and had to pay by putting the empty packet through the till.....

CatBatCat · 13/06/2020 06:34

Marmite roast potatoes - add it to the fat as you're heating it up.

Giggorata · 13/06/2020 07:55

This thread has just set off a Marmite craving for breakfast.
One variation on Marmite on toast is to make a buttery Marmite sandwich and then lightly toast both sides under the grill.
Completely different and beyond gorgeous. 😋
