-Make some macaroni cheese (preferably McIntosh of Strathmore, but Kraft Mondelez Cheesy Pasta works)
-Mix up some honey and chilli flakes
-Very lightly toast Waburtons Toastie White in the toaster or under the grill
-Put macaroni cheese on bread and cover in the honey chilli mix
-Warm up a little bit of oil in the frying pan and fry both sides of the toastie until goldenEat it.
FTFY
That too, but the thread isn't just about making and eating food 😋
My "Toasties" are a winner in our household, but they're more of a fried sandwich TBH.
Assembly order (note no butter in the actual sandwich)
-Bread
-Pastrami
-Cheddar (fine grated)
-Sliced Gherkin (although I like pickled beetroot in mine)
-Dirty 'merica style mustard
-Bread
Butter in pan on higher heat slap toastie down on melted butter and burn one side while buttering the top side, then flip it over and do the other side.
Put on plate, repeat for next "customer" (family members that apparently can't operate a kitchen for themselves)
But I'm now intrigued by the Air fryer option, I am a general devotee of the airfryer now, the pan gets used for toasties because I long ago learned that toastie makers are a faff and actually a bit crap for making toasties, but if the airfryer can deliver the same results I'm in.
Key question is: are you using the triangle of sadness maker? Or a flat-surfaced panini maker?
I'm a 'two table naan breads in the hotel trouser' press kind of a guy
As a frying pan based toasty theres a gorgeous one made after spotting it on the menu of a French restaurant once - a variation a croque monsieur I suppose. Reads like all the wrongs but its super delicious
Beat an egg and pour it onto a plate
Dip one side of bread into the egg then place eggy side down in pan
then add - gruyere cheese, nice ham, slices of banana and creme fraische - other slice of bread eggy side up and flip the whole thing over
It so nice I hardly ever get it onto a plate - just eat it standing in front of the cooker out of the pan
Brie or camembert, maybe Munster, with mango chutney and rocket.
In a pan, griddle or not: triangle makers are catastrophically flawed. Nowhere for the steam to go, so the pressure builds and forces your cheese out the sides.
Cheesy counter top, hot toast pocket full of wet air. Sad face. Burnt mouth optional.
Stilton and peanut butter is the best
Apart from The Stabilser's remarkably hardcore recipe of 'Mustard' most of these are cheese based.
What good cheese-less recipes are there?

Why would you want a toastie with no cheese, you twisted deviant?!!!
I’m with Stevie G on this one…
I use all kinds of leftovers - bolognaise, chilli...
The best though has to have been boeuf bourguignon...with cheese, of course...
Stilton and peanut butter is the best
Yeah, for attracting a pine marten into your garden
That George Foreman Grill lurking unused at the back of the cupboard can be pressed into service as an excellent toastie toaster.

Once more with feeling.
No It Can't.
A squashed sandwich is not a toastie hot or otherwise.
Requires a proper toastie maker that will seal the edges.
Butter 'outside' of bread (white).
Big spoonful of mincemeat.
Toast.
Sprinkle with sugar.
'Instant' mince pie. Awesome.
Try that with a panini press!
I notice that lidls is doing a tikka flavoured homous.
goes well on toast with a very small pot of pineapple chunks.
