I remember growing up having these toasties on the braai 🤤 they were always such a highlight for me! I think they called “ToeBrooidjies” ???

Well anyway, I thought I’d create my version of these on my Cobb but with a killer omelette in between! The real secret is the little mozzarella balls that then melt and give you this melted stringy cheese vibe that’s too die for!!
