What can I put on my toast for less than 30 cals?

Only thing I can think of is vegemite :sad:

    I really love chevre on toast - usually around 70 cals for one serving of 28 g (~1 tbs), but depending on the size of your bread I usually find that's enough to cover 2 pieces. Plus there's a decent amount of protein in a serving, about 6 g.

    Lol I've been experimenting with mushy peas (for the vitamins mostly but still) so I'm kinda in the same boat xD

    1tb of greek yogurt with a pinch of honey or like 1/2 tsp of jam mixed in. Enough to cover toast, satisfy the sweet and creamy craving, reaaallly good <3

    puréed fruit instead of jam. I prefer strawberry or Saskatoon berry but anything you enjoy. I've heard of using apple sauce with a little bit of cinnamon on toast is amazing too.

    Laughing cow is 35 calories. Still not bad though.
    Cream cheese. I put less than half an ounce on toast typically.

    I make something I like to call Strawberry cheesecake toast. On sprouted grain toast I spread 1/2 to 1 Tbsp of ricotta cheese and top with 1/2 to 1 tsp of strawberry jam. Any flavour jam works with it, ricotta is so good!

    Edit: If you want to keep it to under 30 cals just use the smaller amounts.

    Light cream cheese is good. My favorite is Becel light margarine (35 cals for 2 tsp) , with some sprinkled ground cinnamon and a bit of Splenda . Cinnamon toast is delicious!

    Make no sugar jam with Ball no sugar pectin. I make blueberry. I just put a cup full in the sauce pan, add some water, add pectin, and boil for a few mins. Then I pour it in a jar and it turns into jam.

    Considering Vegemite was your first mistake. The answer is always Marmite.

    Apple butter. Check the particular apple butter, but most are made without added sugar and are pretty low calorie (and tasty).

    Why get complicated? One pat of butter is only 36 calories, and that drenches your toast with butter. Use less than a pat!
