Good food never goes to waste under our watch! We wanted to share an idea for how to use some items lying around your kitchen to create a new dish for lunch or dinner.

Along with the help of our friend Pat the Spatula, we’ve broken it down for you below.

Cheers to Replate-ing!!

Ingredients:

  • Leftover French bread or sourdough, thickly sliced

  • A bunch of ripe tomatoes

  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper

  • Olive oil

  • Balsamic vinegar

  • Basil

  • Gorgonzola cheese - or your other favorite!

  • Garlic cloves

Directions:

  • Preheat the oven to 300°C.

  • Wash the tomatoes, and slice them in half, horizontally. Arrange them face up on aluminum foil or parchment paper. Lightly season with salt and pepper and olive oil. Finish with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar directly over the face of each tomato half.

  • Roast for 40 minutes and remove.

  • Toss bread, garlic and oil in a baking dish. Add the tomatoes.

  • Roast for additional 30-40 minutes.

  • Scatter with cheese and basil, and drizzle with extra oil to serve. Add any additional fun toppings you find in your kitchen!
