    💙 Why you'll love it

    • Perfect for a quick meal: ready in 15 minutes
    • This toast is vegetarian* but can easily be transformed into a vegan, dairy-free or gluten-free version.
    • It's really super easy to make

    🍞 Ingredients

    You'll need the following ingredients to make this delicious toast. You can find the quantities in the recipe card below.

    • Bread: of your choice (with or without seeds, cereal, gluten-free, farmhouse, etc.)
    • A beet: already cooked to go faster. If you have a fresh one, have a look at the FAQ
    • Two cheeses: ricotta and feta, but you can substitute them.
    • Eggs: Ideally pasture-raised organic. You can refer to the Eco Tips I've written on eggs to help you choose the right ones.
    • Fried onions: available in most supermarkets
    • Garlic: if you want to choose your garlic carefully so you do not encourage the slavery of Chinese prisoners, read my Eco Tips on the subject.

    ✅ Vegan, dairy-free and gluten-free version

    • To make this recipe vegan, replace the ricotta and feta with the vegan cheese (plant-based cheeses) of your choice, and the egg with a plant-based egg substitute (yes, there is such a thing!).
    • To make this recipe dairy-free: buy dairy-free feta and replace the ricotta, which is one of the most dairy-rich cheeses, with dairy-free heavy cream.
    • To make this recipe gluten-free: buy a gluten-free bread and check that the salt, pepper and fried onions you're using don't contain gluten (they shouldn't).

    😍 Chef's tips

    • To cook a hard-boiled egg successfully: if the egg is small, leave it in boiling water for 10 minutes with its shell on. If larger, leave for 12 minutes. Once out of the water, place in a bowl of cold water with ice cubes to stop the cooking process, before shelling.
    • You can replace it with a soft-boiled egg: let it cook for about 6 minutes in a pan of boiling water with its shell on. Place in a bowl of cold water with ice cubes to stop cooking before shelling.
    • Or a poached egg: break it into a pan of boiling water and leave to cook for 3 minutes. You can form a swirl with a knife by twisting around the edges of the pan, to get a nice round shape.

    💡 Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I use fresh beet?

    Of course! To cook: place in a pot of boiling water for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on size. Stick a knife into it, and if it sinks in well, it's cooked. All you have to do is peel and use.

    When to eat beet

    October to March inclusive.

    ❄️ Storage

    I recommend topping your slices of bread at the last moment, otherwise it may become too soft. But you can prepare the beet cream 2 days beforehand and store it in an airtight container in the fridge.

    If you make this toast with beet cream, it would be so nice to leave me a comment and rate the recipe ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. You can also tag me on Instagram, Pinterest, Facebook or Tik Tok, or even send me a photo, I love seeing my little dishes in your homes!

    Ingredients

    • 4 slices bread

    • ¼ lemon
    • 2 eggs

    • 2 handfuls fried onions
    • ½ cup feta cheese
    • 1 small garlic clove
    • Salt
    • Black pepper

    Instructions

    • Cut your cooked beet into small cubes and place in your blender (see note 1) with the ricotta, a little lemon juice, salt and pepper.
    • Blend to a smooth cream. Taste to make sure it's just right, and adjust (salt, pepper, lemon juice) if necessary.

    Notes

    • If you don't have a blender, you can put the ricotta cream ingredients in a bowl and use an immersion blender.
    • If you don't have a toaster, you can fry your slices of bread with a knob of butter in a pan until golden brown.
    • The amount of ingredients left will depend on the size of your bread slices.
    • You can enjoy these toasts with the salad of your choice.
