An easy post-workout snack, or a light lunch
Sometimes I cook just for me…. I’ve been craving this flavor combo since being inspired by Cook Snook flatbread pizza — and it did not disappoint! I’m newly obsessed with toast as the easiest post-workout snack or light lunch. I really want my son to become a toast fan because it would be such a quick and filling snack. He’s not there yet, so in the meantime, it’s just me loving Toast Tuesdays… serious YUM!
