      …UNDER the grill? Do you mean in the charcoal or on the grass? Either way, sounds bad 😛

    Here’s my variant: make some toast, butter it, then cut it into 1 inch squares. Now mix together in a bowl the toast squares, a tin of baked beans, shredded tasty cheese, and any other flavour enhancers of your choice. Any type of hot sauce is great, wholegrain mustard can also work.

    Throw the whole bowl in the microwave for 1-2mins and you’ve got a delicious bowl of cheesey, spicy, beany, bready, buttery goodness. The saucy toast won’t be to everyone’s taste but I love it. It’s my go-to lunch meal when working from home.

    If you want to take it to another level you can grill some cheap sausages, slice them up and throw them in the mix as well!

      Follow up comment. I’ve just realised, this is British nachos. The toast is the corn chips. The beans are both salsa and frijoles. The cheese is… cheese.

    Not a big tea fan (I don’t mind i, I just prefer coffee as a hot beverage/caffeine delivery method), but I LOVE beans on toast! So simple yet so delicious!
