Cafe-Style Or Classic?

As sandwich connoisseurs know, toasties come in all shapes and sizes. When choosing your new benchtop bestie, consider if you like your toasted sarnies to be flat and crunchy or plump and oozy. If your family tends to stuff their toasties with as many flavours as possible, you might want to invest in a classic machine that gives fillings a bit more room. If, however, your diners have a simpler palate, a cafe-style model might be just the thing. While cafe-style appliances can also cook wraps, pizzas and tacos, classic toasties look the business and can be extra-stuffed for those with bigger appetites.

Easy Kids Dinners You Can Make In Your Sandwich Press

You may well know how to make a toastie – but what about mixing it up with these top-notch kids’ dinner ideas that’ll save you time and stress? 

Taco Wraps

Have leftover taco mince or chilli con carne? Fancy an evening of Tex-Mex tastiness? If so, grab a wrap and try the latest trick going viral on TikTok. Make a cut from the centre of your wrap straight to the bottom edge, then picture your wrap divided into quartered sections. Load up a topping on each of the quarters (try mince, cheese, lettuce and sour cream), then fold each section over the next, starting from the bottom left. Pop the wrap on a cafe-style toastie machine, such as the Sunbeam Cafe Style Sandwich Maker 4 Slice, and prepare for mouthwatering toasted tastiness.

Pizza

If you’ve got a machine that can be locked halfway open, such as the Breville the Toast & Melt Sandwich Press, then toastie pizza is on the dinner menu! Simply use your bread as your pizza base, add all the family’s favourite toppings, then sprinkle with grated cheese and let the half-open grill work its magic.

Breakfast For Dinner

Who doesn’t love brinner? It wins on novelty value alone. Load up a wrap with eggs, ham, spinach and barbecue sauce, and cook on a cafe-style sandwich press, such as the Sunbeam 6 Slice Sandwich Grill and Press, for a breakfast of champions that’ll have them demanding brekkie at all hours of the day. 

Layered Dessert Toastie

Toasties aren’t just for the savoury tooth – a host of sweet treats can be made in your toastie machine and dished up as a dessert the kids will love. Try fillings such as peanut butter and jam, chocolate hazelnut spread with marshmallows, or frozen raspberries with fresh banana and white chocolate melts, all toasted in a classic sandwich maker, such as the Breville The Original Toastie Maker. Serve with a dollop of ice cream for double the decadence!
