Beans on toast is traditional English breakfast, commonly made by simply pouring a can of baked beans over a piece of toast. It is simple and comforting and happens to be really filling and can be healthy. We decided to try a version of this by making our own healthier baked beans, adding some veggies and serve it for dinner. Feel free to try this any time of day with or without the veg.
