Description

Unlock a new level of toastie mastery with our Ultimate Vegemite Toastie recipe! This Aussie classic gets a cheesy makeover with not one, not two, but four different cheeses, ensuring the ultimate cheese pull experience with every bite. But wait, there's more! We're not just talking about a mere scrape of Vegemite here—oh no! The secret to the ultimate flavor explosion lies in mixing Vegemite right into the butter before slathering it onto the bread.

 

This ingenious twist guarantees that every inch of your toastie is infused with that iconic Vegemite goodness, creating a flavor sensation like no other. And let's not forget about the cheese—gooey, melty, and oh-so-satisfying, it's the perfect complement to the savory richness of the Vegemite.

 

But here's the catch: while this toastie is undeniably delicious, we recommend enjoying it in moderation. With its irresistible combination of flavors and textures, it's easy to see why you'll be tempted to indulge every day. However, if you're trying to lose weight, we suggest saving this treat for a special once-a-fortnight indulgence.

If you don't want to break the bank with the calories  (or feel like having a nap) but still want a piece of this toastie, share half of it with someone you love and have it with a simple soup (tomato, cauliflower or pumpkin would be our top reccos).
