I love cheese toast. Any kind of sliced cheese will do--Cheddar, Swiss, Mozzarella--on a slice of white or whole wheat bread, placed under the broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the bread are crunchy, and you have a delicacy for breakfast, lunch, a snack, or a late-night rendevous.
In addition to the truly satisfying feel and appearance of this magic morsel, it is also quite nutritious. Cheese has the same calcium content as milk, and the same vitamins and other minerals. It gets a lot of press about it high fat and cholesterol count, but the white cheeses are less problematic in that area.
Bread sometimes gets a lot of bad press too, but bread is high in the B vitamins and whole grains have a high fiber content. All in all, it's hard to beat cheese toast!
