Mac & cheese Toast Recipe

Hi there!

Today, I'm sharing a simple recipe for Mac and Cheese Toast. The idea for this dish came from a question I asked myself: What would I eat for breakfast if I lived in the U.S.?

Since I love cheese and have always thought mac and cheese, a popular American comfort food, looked rich and delicious, I decided to try it in toast form. Let's get started!

Ingredients

Chef M Mac and Cheese
1 slice of cheddar cheese
1 slice of sandwich bread
Mozzarella cheese (to taste)

1) Preparing the Mac and Cheese

Instead of making mac and cheese from scratch, I used Chef M Mac and Cheese, a convenient option you can find at the store. The pre-made version is creamy and rich enough, but I added a slice of cheddar cheese to make the sauce even more flavorful and indulgent.

After heating the mac and cheese in the microwave for about 3 minutes, I stirred in the cheddar cheese while it was still hot to let it melt completely. You could also add mozzarella cheese if you prefer an extra gooey texture-it's all up to your taste!

2) Spreading and Adding Mozzarella Cheese

Next, spread the prepared mac and cheese evenly over a slice of bread. The more you add, the juicier and more satisfying it will be, so don't hold back!

The vibrant yellow color makes it look even more appetizing. Since just the mac and cheese might feel a bit plain, I sprinkled some shredded mozzarella cheese on top. I used about a small handful, but feel free to add more if you want that dramatic stretch when you take a bite.

3) Baking in the Air Fryer

I baked the toast in an air fryer at 180°C (about 350°F) for 2 minutes. Since the mac and cheese was already cooked, I just needed to melt the mozzarella and give it a slightly golden finish. When I saw the perfectly melted mozzarella on top, I couldn't wait to try it-it looked so good!

Taste Reviews

After taking a bite, I realized there were a few tweaks I'd make next time.

For a crispier texture, pre-toasting the bread before adding the toppings would be a great idea. Other than that, the combination of the creamy, savory cheese and the soft mac and cheese was absolutely delightful.

However, the dish can be quite rich, so I recommend adding something like pizza sauce or a bit of ketchup for a hint of acidity or spice to balance it out. You could even sprinkle in some chopped veggies for extra flavor and texture.

If you love bold, cheesy flavors and want to try a little slice of American comfort food, this recipe is for you!

I had so much fun making this Mac and Cheese Toast-what do you think?

It's quick, easy, and definitely worth a try. Give it a go and enjoy!
