Toast Hawaii recipe for lunch with toasted Ciabatta halves.

Toast Hawaii – classic recipe for lunch

We are loving Toast Hawaii, it’s a classic recipe and ideal for lunch because it tastes delicious and is prepared very quickly. Instead of regular toast I take ciabatta rolls, cut into halves, and toast them first. This will make the bread or toast crispy.

Ingredients for 4 persons

  • ciabatta bread (or toast): 8 slices
  • some butter or mild mustard
  • ham: 8 slices
  • pineapple: 8 slices from the can
  • cheese (Swiss, Emmentaler, Gruyère or Raclette cheese): 8 slices
  • cocktail cherries from the can or some red jam for decoration

You can spice it all up with black pepper or red paprika, but since our kids do not like to eat too spicy, I prefer not to season.

Kids love to help in the kitchen

This is one of the favorite recipes of our children. It’s easy to make and your kids will love to help putting the slices onto the toasts or ciabattas. Children love to cook in a toy kitchen from an early age and imitate their parents. If they are allowed to help with a proper meal, they are very proud. They then see the result and can say that I did it myself!

Your kids will also love this cool recipe for Bread Animals or a yummy Chocolate Chips Cookies or the Cookies with mini Smarties for a special occasion. Or try a typical Swiss Meal: Vogelheu (bird hay).
