Ingredients

  • 6 slices Gluten Free Bread
  • 1 Red beetroot
  • 1 Yellow beetroot
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 25-30 g Goat cheese
  • 1/2-1 tbsp Creme Fraiche or Greek yogurt
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Walnuts roughly chopped
  • Agave or honey, to top (optional)

Instructions

  • Bring water to a boil in a pot. Add salt to the water and boil the beetroots until soft and tender, about 30-40 minutes, depending on the size.
  • Run the beets under cold water, let them cool for a few minutes. Peel and slice the beets.
  • Preheat a nonstick pan over medium heat with some olive oil. Fry the bread for a few minutes on each side, until golden brown (optional).

  • Spread goat cheese cream on each bread slice. Top with sliced beets, roughly chopped walnuts, honey and fresh basil.
