Nutella French toasts

Whatsup everyone!!! I hope everything is well!
So in the past months I've seen this nutella French toast craze in my college especially, so I decided to share this very easy recipe, which I learnt from my friend. So let's get started.

INGREDIENTS:

1. Nutella or any hazelnut spread that you like.
2. 2 fresh white bread slices
3. Powdered sugar
4. Cinnamon powder (optional)
5. Oil for frying
6. 1 egg 
7. 2 tbsp milk

METHOD:

1. Remove the sides of your bread, roll it with a rolling pin to flatten it out.
2. Let your nutella come to room temperature.
3. Spread it on your slices, as much as you like, be gentle and try not to break your slice.
4. Roll your bread carefully.
5. Mix the egg  and milk.
6. Place your rolls into the above mix, don't let them stay there long or the slices will soak up too much and break off.
7. In a non stick pan add 2-3 tbsp oil and don't warm it up, directly add your rolls.
8. Very carefully flip them over, using 2 forks.
9. When they turn golden brown, remove them.
10. Roll them in your powdered sugar and cinnamon. 
11. Drizzle some extra Nutella.
12. Enjoy!

Quick fix: Mac n cheese sandwich

Hi all!
Hope you're all doing well! So yesterday I had this test which I literally hated but I wanted to pass it desperately so I had to study anyway, in the middle of which I felt so hungry, as if I'll die if I won't eat. 😝
I needed a quick, easy and fulfilling recipe, so I went for macaroni and cheese filled grilled cheese style sandwich. My earlier problem with these sandwiches was that I found them too heavy because of too much cheese, also in usual recipes it's kinda bland so in my version I'll add left over chicken for texture and a little less cheese as per my liking. You can go ahead and adjust likewise.Here is the link for the simpler version: Simple grilled cheese sandwich

INGREDIENTS:

1. Fresh soft bread slices--4 
2. Boiled Macaroni--1 cup  (basically any pasta available)
3. Good quality Sharp cheddar cheese--50 gram (you can go ahead and tripple the quantity)
4. Butter--5 tbsp (any kind that's available)
5. Salt and pepper
6. Pinch of red chili flakes
7. 2 tbsp of cream
8. Left over chicken or or pickled jalapenos for vegans

METHOD:

1. In a pan add butter, chicken and boiled pasta.
2. Let the butter melt.
3. Add your seasonings.
4. Now add cream.
5. Lastly add your shredded cheese or good quality slices it depends on what's available and what's your preference, let it melt.
6. Now directly place this pasta over your bread slice and coverup with the other.
7. Grill the sandwich over a lightly buttered non stick, till both sides are crisp and golden.
8. For extra crispiness butter the outer sides of your sandwich and watch out that it doesn't burn.
9. Serve immediately.
