Toast is a great side dish with so many other food items. For example, when you are making spaghetti or lasagna and you forgot to buy a loaf of garlic bread, you can make toast. Toast can also be a meal when it's sandwiched around tuna fish, a BLT (bacon, lettuce, and tomato) sandwich, a sub sandwich, or hamburger patties with cheese. And don't forget about buttered toast with an over-easy egg plopped on top of it. The egg yolk oozing out all over the toast is so delicious! Also, when I was growing up, my mother would make us chocolate pudding with a side of buttered toast. I wonder if anyone else ate that. Yum!
