Being the wee food connoisseur that I am, let me offer a few toasted sandwiches which are really, really good....
Smoked salmon on toast (Scottish salmon, obviously)
Take the salmon out of the fridge. It needs to be room temperature before you eat it (that takes about 10 minutes).
Make scrambled eggs (with milk, not water)
Toast two slices of bread, put a slice of salmon on it, add the scrambled eggs, salt and pepper to flavour and top it off with the second slice of toast.
Garlic chicken on toast
Take a slab of chicken fillet. Cut it so that you get long, flat slices. (So you're basically slicing layers off it).
Put oil in the pan, get it good and hot. Chuck the chicken in. As you're frying, put on the toast.
As you're frying add pepper and garlic. Preferably fresh garlic, but garlic powder is okay (and less messy).
Put the fried chicken on the toast and add salt to flavour.
You can do the same with steak, but instead of garlic, add essence of truffel.
Mackrel mayonnaise
Get a smoked mackrel and take the flesh off it. Make sure you don't have any bones. Add mayonnaise and chopped up onions to it to make a sort of pate. Add salt, pepper and a wee bit of garlic. You can spice it up with tobasco sauce or whatever.
Put it on toast.
Yummy.

Pineapple with ham and cheese? That's almost as bad as putting the stuff on a pizza.😠
If you have a sweet tooth, try a syrup toasted sandwich. Lovely! 😀
