A Simple But Very Effective Beans on Toast With a Twist!

Beans On Toast & Spicy Tomato Chutney

One of these days we will get around to writing a blog entitled '50 Ways To Pimp Up Your Beans On Toast!'

And when we do, this one is a certainty to make the cut. We've been enjoying curried Beans on Toast using our Spicy Sillylilli for a few years now (there's 2 ways!) but recently decided to up the anti, hold on to the spice but try something a bit different.

There's nothing complicated about this one. It's an easy snack, a brunch, a lunch or a lazy tea. All you need is a couple of slices of bread, a tin of your favourite baked beans, a jar of Calder's Kitchen Spicy Tomato Chutney, your cheese of choice to grate over the top (in this example we used Shepherds Purse Yorkshire Blue - oh yes!)...and a knife and fork.

Our new favourite twist on the classic Beans on Toast. OK we kind of feel we are 'cheating' on Sillylilli here, but it had to be tried and we are so glad we did!

A simple snack. Heat half a tin of your favourite baked beans in a pan, add a generous desert spoon of Calder's Kitchen Spicy Tomato Chutney, stir in on a low heat and service on a halved slice of buttered toast. Serve with a sprinkling of the cheese of your choice.
