My favourites include tuna melt or grilled cheese (If you are feeling fancy brie and jam is a delightful idea). But the key is to level up your basics.
-First, grill your bread!! Make sure it is nice and crispy, you can use butter or even create a cheese crost using parmesan on the exterior.
- If you want a little kick of flavour pickle the tomatoes (you can easily do so by adding some vinegar, salt and sugar and letting it marinate a few hours before, what I do is do that at night and then when I am making a sando to take to work it is all good and pickled)
-Herbs!! My favourite is dill (that is controversial), a good rosemary and basil are easy ways to level it up!! (you can have them in little pots in your kitchen/room so as to make them taper and fresh.
-I am a fan of a good savoury and sweet combo! Cheese and Jam, Avocado and Honey, Chicken and Chocolate (trust).
-If you are editing eggs find a way to cook it that you enjoy the most! I love omelettes when you add the whisked eggs to the pan and IN LOW HEAT start to push the edges to the centre as they cook. This prevents the eggs from being dry giving, a nice runny yolk is always a good idea as well

My general rule is thus:
- Toast and butter very mild flavored ingredients. Egg and cheese sandwich on, say, an onion roll. Salted butter for flavor.
- Toast only is good for firming up bread with looser ingredients. Sloppy joe on a sesame seed bun. The classic triple-decker club sandwich. The toasting brings a little bit of flavor, but mostly this is for structure.
- No toasting or butter is good for the vast majority of other sandwiches, I'd say 85% of all sandwiches you'll encounter in your life. Start here, actually, and add the above if something falls apart or is missing somthing.
Sandwiches. Yum.

Getting to the checkout and realizing that the price on the shelf was wrong and you actually don't think the real price is worth it, but the cashier is looking at you.
