French-Toast Rolls with spicy chicken, diced apple, onions and cheese

  This is an easy one and insanely delicious. It keeps well and can be brought back to full glory by heating it for 35 seconds in the microwave, making ideal for work lunchboxes or preparing in advance.

 It's also quick to make and the fillings are limited only by your imagination. I used what I had - leftover chicken - but next time, when I'm better prepared, I'll add bacon and avocado.

 If you don't plan on immediately eating the roll, I would suggest NOT including anything with a high moisture-content, such as tomatoes. Dried tomatoes would probably be fine.

 You'll love this. Try it.

Ingredients:

(Makes 6)

6 slices of bread

1/2 of one diced onion. (I chopped it roughly as I wanted texture.)

2 - 3 cooked chicken breasts

1 sweet apple, finely diced

1 and 1/2 teaspoons of mayonnaise

1 cup of grated cheese

1 teaspoon of hot chili sauce (More if you like it hotter.)

1 teaspoon lemon juice

Salt and pepper to season

3 eggs and a splash of milk

Method:

1.   Flatten the slices of bread with a rolling pin. This prevents the bread from breaking when it is later rolled.

2.   Mix all ingredients, except milk and eggs in a bowl.

3.   Spoon a layer onto the top third of a slice of bread. Do not overfill as this will make it difficult to roll.

4.   Carefully roll the bread and filling into a cylinder.

5.   In a separate bowl, large enough to accommodate the roll, beat together the eggs and splash of milk.

6.   Roll the bread cylinder in the egg mixture. Be careful to do so gently, as it can easily unravel. Make sure it is saturated but do not overdo it. If it is too wet it can become fragile and break.

7.   Fry lightly in a pan, gently turning the roll, until it is golden brown on all sides.
