Equipment

toaster
Can Opener
small mixing bowl
cutting board and sharpened knife
measuring spoon 1 tbsp

Ingredients

1 slice sourdough bread or similar thick-sliced bread
1/2 cup white beans cannellini, Great Northern, navy, chickpea, or similar
1 tbsp Caesar salad dressing
1 tbsp parmesan cheese shredded
2-3 slices tomato
2-3 slices red onion
2-3 pieces Bibb or butter leaf lettuce
micro greens or fresh herbs for garnish, optional
black pepper and flaky sea salt to taste

Instructions

Brush both sides of the bread with olive oil and toast to your preferred doneness using a toaster, cast iron pan, or skillet on the stovetop over medium heat.
Meanwhile, drain and rinse the canned beans for 15-20 seconds. Set the colander in the sink to drain while preparing the slices tomatoes, red onion, and fresh lettuce.
Place the beans in a small mixing bowl and add the Caesar dressing, black pepper, and parmesan cheese. Stir together until all the beans are evenly coated, or use the back of the spoon to roughly mash the beans into a chunky, thick consistency.
Once the toast is done, allow to cool slightly before layering the lettuce, Caesar beans, sliced tomatoes and red onions, and any desired garnishes. Slice in half (optional) and serve. Enjoy right away for best results.

Notes

While the toast and fresh veggies aren't the best option for meal prep or leftovers, the remaining canned beans can be mixed into a new batch of Caesar Beans and stored in the fridge for up to 4 days.
