Instructions

  1. First, slice the cherry tomatoes (or baby plum) in half and add to a non stick pan with 1/2 tbsp of olive oil, chopped garlic, thyme leaves, balsamic, salt and pepper
  2. Saute the tomatoes on a medium heat, as they start to soften use a spatula or wooden spoon to lightly squash the tomatoes to create a sauce..
  3. After around 7-8 minutes add the cannellini beans ( save 2 tbsp of the cooking liquid from the can and add that too) cook the beans for around 3-5 minutes.
  4. Once the beans have softened slightly turn off the heat and set aside for 2 minutes to cool. Add the arugula/rocket and mix through. Add a good pinch of salt and pepper then top with prosciutto, baby mozzarella and a drizzle of olive oil and a few torn basil leaves.

  • Fresh or dried herbs such as fennel seeds, chili flakes, tarragon, parsley
  • You could even top with a poached or fried egg to turn it into a brunch
