Ingredients
2 slices of sourdough bread
1 cup butternut squash, roasted and cubed
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1 tablespoon balsamic glaze
Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the cubed butternut squash on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.
- While the squash is roasting, toast the slices of sourdough bread until crispy.
- Once the squash is done, remove it from the oven and set aside.
- To assemble the toast, top each slice of sourdough with the roasted butternut squash cubes.
- Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the squash.
- Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the top and garnish with fresh parsley.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
For extra protein, add a poached egg or grilled chicken on top.
Goat cheese or ricotta can be substituted for feta cheese.
Spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or chili flakes can be added for extra warmth and spice.
To make it vegan, use a plant-based cheese alternative or skip the cheese altogether.
Toast the bread just before assembling to avoid sogginess.
Leftovers should be stored separately to maintain the bread’s crispiness.
