Quarantine has really challenged me to step up my lunch game. Having just gone back to work, it’s nice to have something to look forward to and not have a #saddesklunch. It feels like a blessing to be home and have the space to be a little more creative, especially in the middle of the day.
These hummus toasts come together in just 20 minutes, most of which you’re just roasting up the brussels sprouts. You use store bought hummus, spread it over the toasts, spread the brussels sprouts over them and BAM you’ve got lunch, sis!
The brussels sprouts are super easy, with simple ingredients you can 100% get your hands on in quarantine! Just a little olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper. It’s the simple ingredients, ya know?
I couldn’t get shaved sprouts, so I sliced mine and then just separated them gently with my fingers. This gave me some delicious crispy bits!
I used a roasted garlic hummus to spread over toasted sourdough bread – work with whatever you’ve got and whatever your favorite flavors are! A lemon hummus would be awesome, spicy would be amazing – whatever you love most!
For my other favorite toasts, check out my mushroom toast and ricotta toast.
