Super Green Beans On Toast
As delicious as they are vibrant, these beans will take your toast up a level. With a super easy sauce of spinach, cavolo nero and basil, it's a great one to make a batch of at the start of the week for quick lunches. Plus, it's incredibly versatile — it works just as well on top of a jacket potato or some rice.

Blitz until smooth; taste to check the seasoning and adjust as needed.
