Cheese and oregano sandwich/toast
Sandwiches are one of the easiest food items to make. The problem with sandwiches is that they can become very mundane if you eat them every day and are often lacklustre in taste. To make them more interesting and delicious, try adding cheese and some oregano. All ingredients can be easily bought from any grocery store. Liquid cheese or cheese slices, both work well for this recipe. Just spread the cheese or place the cheese slice on bread, then sprinkle oregano on top of the cheese. You can also add some slices of cucumber and salami after that. The cheese and oregano sandwich, without the vegetables or meat, can also be toasted if you have some extra time on your hands. This is one of the easiest and most delicious quick meals you can make for a tiffin.
