Ingredients
  

1 can (400g) of mixed beans (kidney, black, and cannellini), drained and rinsed

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (adjust to taste)

1 tablespoon tomato paste

1 cup vegetable broth

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 slices of thick-cut whole-grain bread

Fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Optional: A dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for serving

Instructions
 

Sauté the Aromatics: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently until fragrant.

    Spice It Up: Stir in the smoked paprika, ground cumin, and chili flakes. Cook for 1 minute until the spices are aromatic.

      Add Beans and Tomato Paste: Add the drained mixed beans and tomato paste to the skillet, stirring to combine thoroughly with the onion and spices.

        Simmer: Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are heated through and the mixture thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

          Toast the Bread: While the beans are simmering, toast the slices of whole-grain bread in a toaster or on a grill until golden brown and crispy.

            Serve: Spoon the spicy bean mixture generously over the toasted bread. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro or parsley. If desired, add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt on top for creaminess.

              Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy your hearty, flavorful breakfast!
