Toastie filling ideas

63 replies

Hi All,

As the title suggests, I'm looking for some toastie filling ideas. Currently on a tight budget and need some ideas as to what I can put inside my toastie maker aside from the classic cheese and beans combo.

TIA x

Black pudding or cheese and onion is a favourite in this house

Thin layer of tomato puree, whatever pizza toppings you like, (anchovies and olives for me), and grated cheese.
Tuna and feta.
Leftover chilli, I particularly like bean chilli.
Mozzarella and pesto.
Mature cheddar and marmite.
Banana and peanut butter.

Cheese and marmite 🤤

Ah this has me yearning for the sadly disappeared company called Cheese Postie, who did a monthly subscription box of brilliant and innovative cheese toastie fillings.

What a shame that it no longer exists. 🥪

mrsbyers · 30/10/2023 15:01

Bolognese or chilli
tuna and mushroom soup

TheFlis · 30/10/2023 15:01

Anything you would top a pizza with should work well. Cheese, chorizo and red onion is a fave of mine.

Cheese, tomato, onion, green pepper, pepperoni/ham/salami. All sliced very thin.

Delicious and like little mini pizzas.

viques · 30/10/2023 15:12

Don’t forget to put Mayo on the outside of the toastie so whatever you decide to put inside, the outside has a delicious crunch.

ruby1234 · 30/10/2023 15:13

Marshmallows, glace cherries and chocolate buttons. Serve with ice cream.
Fabulous!

I use butter, and put mayo on the inside if I want it.

RockStarship · 30/10/2023 15:17

Anchovie and jalapeño is my current obsession. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

TastesLikeStrawberriesOnASummerEvening · 30/10/2023 15:18

I love anchovies, I eat them from the jar.

Show quote history

I used to put butter on the outside, but then tried mayo ( hmmm, I wonder where I got that tip from eh MN?) . It gives a lovely golden crunch to the outside of the toastie.
