Tomato Toast


Just like my grandma used to say, it is a sin to throw any bread away. The Pasta Queen said the exact same thing. Well, not word for word, but the same intent and meaning. And this dish is inspired by one of her TikTok videos. I am a big fan of hers since I love Italian cuisine, but also, just love her simple recipes.



This is a very simple recipe that requires minimal time and effort. It will be a perfect brunch. You can check out her original recipe here. My version is slightly different from hers. I toasted my bread, I used different greens and I used my homemade tomato sauce instead of fresh ones. Well, and of cos, that extra touch of parmigiano to bring it all together.



A recipe like this is simple and uses very few ingredients. So, be sure to use the best ingredients that you can get your hands on. Or in other words, use the brands of ingredients that you love. Everyone has a unique palate. Go find yours, you might be surprised with what you end up with.
