Ingredients
- 400 grams Low-sodium baked beans
- 4 slices Whole grain bread
- 2 teaspoons Low-fat margarine
- 1 tablespoon Tomato paste
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Begin by gathering all the ingredients and ensuring your kitchen workspace is clean and organized.
Step 2
Open the can of low-sodium baked beans, and pour them into a small saucepan. Place the saucepan over medium heat.
Step 3
Add the tomato paste, smoked paprika, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder to the saucepan with the beans. Stir everything together to ensure the spices are well distributed.
Step 4
Allow the beans to simmer on medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will blend the flavors and slightly thicken the beans.
Step 5
While the beans are simmering, toast the slices of whole grain bread to your preference using a toaster or an oven grill.
Step 6
Once toasted, spread a teaspoon of low-fat margarine evenly on each slice of toast.
Step 7
When the beans are ready, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, then remove from heat.
Step 8
Place two slices of margarine-spread toast on each serving plate, and evenly spoon the hot beans over the top of the toast.
Step 9
Garnish the beans on toast with chopped fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice for added freshness and brightness.
Step 10
Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your low-fat classic beans on toast!
