Toast is one of the simplest, yet satisfying foods out there.

It's a little crazy how a plain piece of bread is not tempting, but a slightly burnt, crispier piece of bread is irresistible. It calms upset stomachs, pairs well with any breakfast beverage, cures the common cold, and allows you to eat an entire meal for very little cost.

However, the same old piece of toast with butter can get monotonous. Even if you throw some cinnamon sugar on it, toast can get bland.

Here are some recipes to help you enjoy toast the way it should be enjoyed.
