Is this the right meal for today?
Tomato toast is an assembly-led breakfast or light lunch. Bread quality, a ripe tomato, and olive oil are central here; it is a smaller undertaking than a cooked vegetable skillet.
Plan the method before you start
Toast first and rub the tomato onto warm bread. Decide whether you need another component for the meal, because four slices of dressed toast are not the same kind of dinner as a soup and main course.
