Honestly, this recipe is so simple, it needn’t really be a recipe. But it’s definitely a good idea as an after school snack for the kids, and you can fill it with just about anything you like.

  1. Yep… bacon, onion, egg and cheese mixed together and melted in oven. This is the original that my mum made. Sometimes we added tomatos diced as well YUM. NO. 1 at the top is right no vegemite …..

  2. I thought the key ingredient to a mouse trap was tinned spaghetti – I’ll let your imagination explain why – with a range of other ingredients such as cheese, bacon, onion etc, for us grilled on a tip top hamburger bun.
    I found myself on this page as I was trying to explain to my Australian wife what one was! She’s in for a treat tonight.

    1. Best Mousetraps that I have Canadian Friends just loving. Lightly grill both sides of bread. Spread sparingly with vegemite( Canadians don’t like Vegemite so can leave it off) Spread grated cheese over the whole vegemite bread. Place very finely sliced tomatoes over cheese. Add a little salt and pepper. Lastly add bacon slices , cut into 2 to 3 inch pieces, precook bacon in microwave for about 3 minutes. Put the bacon in top and put the mousetraps under the grill in your oven until cheese melted, bacon fully cooked and tomatoes cook. Watch very carefully so you don’t burn them. So yummy. Really good cold too.

  3. different from the mouse traps we had as kids
    mix chopped bacon and onions, one egg and grated cheese, salt and pepper
    spread onto bread and grill in oven
    i always lightly toast one side and spread mixture on other side
