Fagioli-on-Toast

This rustic fagioli on toast is a sophisticated yet simple vegan dish that celebrates classic Italian flavours. Combining creamy cannellini beans with rich tinned tomatoes, fragrant sage and golden garlic, it offers a hearty and nourishing meal that can be prepared in under twenty minutes. It is an excellent choice for a quick midweek dinner or a filling weekend lunch when you want something more substantial than standard beans on toast.

Packed with plant-based protein and fibre, this healthy recipe relies on shop-bought staples, making it both budget-friendly and convenient. The thick slices of toasted country bread soak up the savoury tomato juices, creating a wonderful contrast of textures. For a touch of extra indulgence, finish with a final drizzle of high-quality extra virgin olive oil before serving.

Ingredients for Fagioli-on-Toast

  • 4 thick slices country bread

  • 4 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 garlic cloves, peeled and sliced

  • A few fresh sage leaves

  • 1 800g can diced tomatoes

  • 1 425g can cannellini beans

  • 1/2 teaspoons salt

  • 1/4 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

How to make Fagioli-on-Toast

  1. Sprinkle the bread with 2 tablespoons of the oil. Toast the slices until crusty and golden.

  2. Heat the remaining oil in a large skillet, then add the garlic and sage and stir until the garlic begins to brown, about 1 minute.

  3. Add the tomatoes, beans, salt, and pepper and stir to combine. Cook until the liquid is reduced and the soup is slightly thickened, a few more minutes.

  4. Serve, placing a slice of toast into each soup bowl or generously spooning the beans and broth right over the bread, if the kids will let you.
