Remember being a kid and toast options were boring and limited. I got everything hummus with warm, melted smoked cheddar on a crispy pieces of toast. Oh what a treat that was!

Everything Hummus and Smoked Cheddar Toast

Here is the thing, I love toast! Coconut French toast, peanut butter banana toast, and basically anything else slathered on toast! Crunchy bread equals happiness and endless possibilities. So where does my flavor imagination take me when it comes to toast? Glad you asked! The answer is my very own pantry and refrigerator. And not because of the staples of peanut butter and American cheese singles.

In my pantry is food I like! In your pantry, there is food you like! That is where the fun comes in when creating something new for your trusted taste buds.

Now honestly you may just want to stop with the melted cheese. I know it looks good, but more flavor awaits!

So on this particular mid-morning I wanted a snack. I opened up my pantry to find half a loaf of New York Russian Rye Bread. I am not one who willingly let’s good food go to waste. I had to find something to make using this bread and I wasn’t in the mood for a sandwich.

On to the refrigerator! What would I like with my bread? Well first a spread of some sort. And of course I need cheese! Cheese and bread just go together in perfect harmony. After finding my cheese and my spread I needed some sweetness. Back to pantry and there sat a bag of trail mix. So yes, I picked out a handful of raisins from the trail mix. Surely no one will notice! A rough chop of raisin to top this epic toast creation!

Did this impromptu toast taste amazing?! YES! My husband found his way to the kitchen and asked, “What’s that?” After describing the toast and how good it turned out he gave me a halfhearted, “I will take your word for it”. Umm NO you are going to try it now! After the bite I forced upon him he requested his own slice.

Don’t forget to save and share!
