Ingredients
INGREDIENTS
- 2 slices of whole grain bread
- 1 cup fresh or frozen peas
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs for garnish (such as mint or parsley)
Instructions
- Toast the bread slices until golden brown.
- In a small bowl, mash the peas with a fork.
- Stir in the crumbled feta, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Spread the pea-feta mixture generously over the toasted bread.
- Garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
Notes
Tip: For a heartier option, top the toast with a poached egg for added protein and richness.
For the best flavor, use fresh or frozen peas that are bright green and tender. If you can’t find feta, crumbled goat cheese works wonderfully as a substitute. Consider adding fresh herbs like mint or basil for an aromatic touch.
These toasts are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for a day. Just reheat the toast before serving. You can also prepare the pea-feta mixture ahead of time for a quick breakfast option!
