BROILED CHEESE TOAST
Growing up, it seemed my parents would be quite creative when preparing weekend breakfast. We always had plenty on the table, even when we had to scrimp to make ends meet. When we did not have a loaf of bread, my mom would use leftover hamburger or hot dog rolls, or whatever she was able to find which would toast under the broiler. Along with our favorite weekend broiled cinnamon toast, we often would have this along with our bacon, eggs and grits. Broiled Cheese toast is a favorite childhood memory for me. I hope your family will enjoy it too!

BROILED TOMATO CHEESE SANDWICH
I love the combination of tomato and cheese. The short marination of the tomatoes in the olive oil and the balsamic vinegar gives it a nice kick. Other vinegar is not as nice. If I have it in the fridge I add an extra topping of mozzarella and you can please the meat eaters by adding slices of crunchy bacon. You can make it a closed sandwich by just toasting 4 more slices of bread to top the sandwich.

Tips:
- Choose the right cheese: Soft, melty cheeses like brie, camembert, and burrata are best for broiling and flaming. Avoid hard cheeses like cheddar and Parmesan, as they won't melt as well.
- Prepare your cheese: If you're using a whole wheel of cheese, cut it in half horizontally. If you're using a wedge of cheese, cut it into 1-inch thick slices.
- Broil your cheese: Preheat your broiler to high. Place the cheese on a broiler-safe baking sheet or skillet. Broil the cheese for 5-7 minutes, or until it is melted and bubbly.
- Flame your cheese: If you want to add a dramatic touch, you can flame your cheese. To do this, pour a small amount of brandy or cognac over the cheese. Ignite the alcohol with a lighter or match. Be careful not to let the flames get too high.
- Serve your cheese: Broiled and flamed cheese is best served immediately. Serve with toast, crackers, or fruit.
