Beans on Toast

This is a quick and delicious lunch option that takes your basic beans on toast to the next level. It is an adult version of the childhood favourite.

I use butter beans, garlic, basil, tinned tomatoes and some seasonings to make the beans.

I served it on some homemade white sliced bread that I toasted.
