Oh Oh found a great easy recipe for my lunches, or suppers. I had some thick fried potato slices and green onion and feta garlic herb cheese, thats what I placed into this sandwich. I was watching the time, as I borrowed snackster machine from my moms trailering equipment and had never used one before. I looked at the 8 minute mark and some butter was still oozing around edges, and at the 10 minutes they were perfect....Great with salad for lunch, or cool for lunches.. you must if you have this machine give these a try.

I have used puff pastry for years in my sandwich maker. No need to even cut the pastry, just lay half over both sides of the sandwich maker, put in filling, and fold over other half of pastry. It will seal when you close the lid, but I do open the catch on the lid part way through to allow the pastry to puff up properly. (Chopped ham, grated cheese and pineapple pieces are good!)

Brilliant idea! I used 1 sheet of puff pastry cut into 4, which fit perfectly, smeared the inside of the electric toastie maker with olive oil instead of butter, and put in some freshly grated raw pumpkin and grated tasty cheese, (I'd mixed in salt, pepper, and garam masala for flavour) and left for about 9 mins. Perfect! I'll be doing this again and again with different grated vegies to try and up my vegie intake.

This will become a regular on our lunch menu. I also live in the Netherlands and this looked perfect for my family as we already love toasties. I made ham and cheese for the kids and egg, ham and cheese for my husband and myself. It got two thumbs up from my picky son and my husband had a second sandwich which says a lot. I was concerned with the cooking time but it was perfect! Thank you for a GREAT idea!
