I'm in love with my new breakfast treat.......one slice of toasted, whole grain bread spread with a Laughing Cow lite French Onion cheese wedge, fresh basil and sliced tomatoes. Makes a great breakfast and another way to use my basil. Have you tried the Thai Basil? It is fabulous.
So I had to post my other favourite quick breakfast treat, which is Banana on toast topped with Thai basil. I take a whole firm banana, chop it in half to get two long bits, and split the long bits in half lengthwise. I place one piece of the banana onto hot buttered toast, chop the banana finely and spread it, then top it with finely chopped Thai basil. I think this is absolutely yum, the Thai basil adds a lovely bright anise flavour and one banana will do four pieces of toast - two for him and two for me.
So, what is your favourite quick breakfast treat?
