Ingredients
 

TOASTS

  • 2 small beetroots (round)
  • 2 small turnips (round)
  • 1 small sweet potato (as straight as possible)
  • 1-2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil or coconut oil

TOPPING

  • 1 vegan yogurt, coco or almond, (goat cheese or ricotta for a vegetarian option)
  • 2 tbsp tapenade (homemade preferably)*
  • 1 spring onions, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp dried herbs (rosemary and thyme)
  • 2-3 tsp fresh pomegranate seeds (1-2 seeds per toast)
  • 2-3 fresh figs, sliced and cut into small triangle pieces, (optional as it depends of the season)

Instructions
 

VEGGIE TOASTS

  • Preheat oven to 200℃ (or 400℉).
  • Peel the sweet potato, turnip, and beetroot. Slice them into nice rounds, about 0.8 cm (just under 1 cm) thick. You should end up with approximately 30 small veggie rounds (keep in mind they should be perfect as a base for your toasts).
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper or a reusable silicone baking mat. Arrange the sliced vegetables in a single layer, making sure they don’t overlap. Brush lightly with olive oil or coconut oil on both side.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping the toasts halfway through (check after 15 minutes as they should be tender but still hold well their shape). When they are ready, let them cool down first.

TOPPING

  • While the veggies are roasting in the oven, prepare the ingredients for the topping. Prep the tapenade if homemade, chop finely the spring onion (and optionally the fig into triangle pieces) and clean the pomegranate if needed.
  • Once your roasted veggie slices/toasts have slightly cooled, add a dollop of vegan yogurt (goat cheese or ricotta for a non vegan version). Spoon 1 tsp of tapenade on each toast, then gently place them on a beautiful serving platter.
  • Decorate with pomegranate seeds, spring onion on top and fresh or dried herbs (and fig). Finish with a crack of fresh ground pepper (and salt).
  • Enjoy it straight away !
