Mediterranean Toast

Whether you're craving a savory start to the day or a light, nourishing lunch, this Mediterranean Toast is a satisfying go-to. Creamy cannellini bean mash takes the place of traditional spreads, offering a fiber-rich base that supports blood sugar balance and hormone health. Layered with roasted red peppers, briny kalamata olives, and infused with fresh garlic, this toast is bursting with flavor and Mediterranean flair.

What makes this especially functional is how easy it is to round out. Pair with boiled eggs, hemp seeds, and a side of greens for a complete, protein-sufficient meal. The balance of healthy fats, fiber, and antioxidants makes it an energizing option to support mood, digestion, and blood sugar—ideal for women navigating hormonal imbalances or chronic stress recovery. Plus, it’s fully customizable to suit your taste.
