How to Make Mediterranean Olive & Tomato Toast
1. Toast the bread
Toast your bread until golden and crisp. A sturdy slice works especially well because it holds all the toppings.
2. Add the olive oil
Drizzle the toast with extra virgin olive oil while it's still warm.
3. Add the toppings
Top with chopped Kalamata olives, sundried tomatoes and a few capers.
4. Finish with feta and oregano
Add crumbled feta and a sprinkle of oregano. Finish with another small drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
That's it!
In just a few minutes, you have a simple Mediterranean-inspired bite packed with savoury, salty and rich flavours.
Make It Your Own
The best part about simple Mediterranean food is how easily you can adapt it.
Try serving your toast alongside a salad, adding it to a mezze-style spread, or cutting the slices into smaller pieces for an easy appetizer when you're entertaining.
You can also experiment with the Mediterranean ingredients you already have at home. Different olives, peppers, spreads and seasonings can completely change the flavour.
