   You’re probably asking the wrong sub 😂

7. Cheese on toast night. Fried egg on toast night. Sausage sandwich night.

8. If I’m that drunk it’s usually toast on beans on carpet in front of telly night.

9. Egg and Chips / Omlettes / Jacket Potato and cheese, beans, tuna sweetcorn

10. Pasta and Pesto
    Boil pasta, dump jar of red pesto over it once cooked and drained.

11. Canned macaroni on toast. Although it’s rare I but it, I do enjoy it.

12. I always forget how good beans on toast is, soup is a good quick meal, with some crusty bread to dip

13. Beans next to toast

14. Tinned spaghetti Bolognese on toast.

15. Mac n cheese?

22. – Fried egg and oven chips
    – Omelet
    – Jacket potato (get proper ones and just put them in the oven in the morning on a timer)
    – Bacon sandwich
    – Ham and cheese toasties

23. Naan bread, tomato puree on top, grated cheese over the top. Jalapenos, peppers, whatever you want on top.

    Put in the oven for 20 minutes and you have a healthier version of a pizza. Very tasty too.

24. Half of these suggestions sound like lunches. I always have a big meal for tea. Beans on toast would not fill me up.
    I do like sausage, mash and beans as a comfort food tea.

25. If you have left over rice, fried rice. Takes 5 minutes.

26. We had chilli dogs tonight. Just jumbo hot dogs and a tin of chills with lots of cheese on. 10 mins in total.

27. Fishfinger butties.

28. American here. I come in peace. I love toast but I don’t understand the combination with beans. Is it canned beans? What kind of bean? Is there a certain way to cook it? I genuinely want to know. I always see posts/things about an “English” breakfast or beans and toast and it looks amazing but I want to know what about that makes it authentic? Sorry if I sound ignorant. It seems like an English staple and I would love to know more. Thanks.
