Beans on Toast

By Thom7747

Mention to the average American, that you love Beans on Toast, and you are stared at in disbelief. I guess the thought of actually eating beans on a piece of toast is a little hard to swallow, both literally, and figuratively, and yet it is an extremely tasty, and nutritious meal. So, just in case you are still wondering what we are talking about, here’s the recipe, which would provide a meal for two.

Ingredients

• 1 - 14 oz tin of Heinz Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce
• 2 - Large Eggs
• 1 – Large Loaf of Bread (suitable for toasting)
• Plenty of Butter (or equivalent if you prefer)

Preparation

Step 1

1) Empty the Baked Beans into a small saucepan

2) Prepare a pan to either poach, or fry the eggs (your choice, but poached is better)

3) Start toasting the bread. How many slices is of course up to you, and your appetite at the time, but at least 2 slices each are needed for the beans, plus any additional slices for the Jam later.

Note: While the toast is toasting, don’t forget to make a large pot of tea. It is an absolute fact that you cannot eat Beans on Toast, without lots of tea.

4) Once the toast is “on” gently warm the beans, and start to cook the eggs.

5) As the toast is done, place it on pre-warmed plates, and apply lots of Butter to taste

6) Pour half the beans on each plate, spreading them over the 2 slices of toast.

7) Place the cooked eggs on top of the beans, sprinkle a little pepper, (a if you prefer, maybe a dash of Worcestershire Sauce), and enjoy.

The extra slices of toast you prepared you can now enjoy with your favorite Jams or Preserves.
