Tomato Marinated Greens And Beans Toast Food

BROTHY BEANS AND GREENS ON TOAST

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat oil and garlic over medium until garlic begins to sizzle, about 1 minute. Add chard stems and season with salt. Cook, stirring, until crisp-tender, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Add chard leaves, cover, and cook, tossing once, until bright green and just tender, about 3 minutes.
• Add beans and cooking liquid; simmer until heated through, about 30 seconds. Season to taste, drizzle with oil, and squeeze with lemon before serving over toast.

MARINATED GREEN BEANS WITH OLIVES, TOMATOES, AND FETA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium heat and drop in the green beans; cook until slightly tender, but still crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Immediately drain the green beans and plunge into ice water to stop the beans from cooking further. Drain the beans and place them in a shallow serving dish.
• Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook garlic in the oil for about 30 seconds. Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the olives, tomatoes, vinegar, oregano, salt, and pepper. Pour mixture over green beans. Toss together until beans are evenly coated. Sprinkle feta cheese over the top and garnish with oregano sprigs. Chill at least 3 hours before serving.

HERBED TOMATOES 'N' GREEN BEANS

SMOKY BEANS AND GREENS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Heat a large, heavy (preferably cast-iron) skillet over medium. Brush the bread on both sides with the olive oil. Lay the bread in the skillet and cook, pressing occasionally with a spatula, until crisp and golden brown, about 90 seconds per side. (If your slices are large, you may have to do this in two batches.) Set the bread aside.
• Heat a Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring frequently, until it has browned a little and rendered at least a tablespoon of fat, about 4 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until it has softened and turned golden, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic, paprika, thyme (if using), red pepper flakes, and, if you're using canned beans, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and cook, stirring, for a minute or two.
• Add the slightly wet kale in batches, using tongs to stir the leaves into the onion mixture; wait for one handful of kale to wilt and shrink before adding the next. When the last of the greens has been added, add the beans and broth. Raise the heat and let the beans and greens simmer for a minute or two, just to warm the beans and bring the flavors together. Taste and add more kosher salt if necessary.
• Serve the greens and beans over the toast in wide, shallow bowls, dusted with a little more smoked paprika.

GRILLED GREENS AND CHEESE ON TOAST

• Grill tomato skewers, Halloumi, and lemon halves, turning skewers and cheese halfway through, until charred and softened, 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a platter.
• Meanwhile, drizzle bread with oil; season lightly with salt. Grill until golden brown and crisp, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to platter. Rub one side of each slice with halved garlic clove.
• Grill kale, placing it crosswise across grate so it doesn't fall through the gaps and turning occasionally, until charred in places and softened throughout, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to platter alongside Halloumi, tomatoes, and bread.
• Push tomatoes off skewers. Squeeze charred lemon halves over Halloumi, tomatoes, kale, and bread. Drizzle with oil.

• Sprinkle the sage only over the butterbeans and drizzle the Worcestershire sauce only over the tomatoes. Toss each section individually with a couple of spoons and keep separate, to keep the flavors separate.
• Bake until the butter beans start to turn golden and the cherry tomatoes are soft and roasted, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven.
• Meanwhile, put the slices of baguette on a baking sheet, drizzle each with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and toast in the oven until golden, about 12 minutes. Then remove to cool.
• When the toasts are cool, rub one side of each with the remaining whole garlic clove.
• To assemble, lay some of the butter beans (about 4) on each toast, pressing down gently with a fork to slightly crush so they do not roll around. Arrange 2 roasted tomatoes on top and garnish with a few chives. Arrange on a serving plate and eat!
