Ingredients

  • 4 slices wholemeal bread, thickly sliced
  • 4 tablespoons tomato purée
  • 2 teaspoons dried mixed herbs
  • 3 slices lean turkey ham, cut into thin strips
  • 60g reduced-fat hard cheese, cut into thin strips
  • 4 cherry tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon sweetcorn (8 kernels are all you need)

Directions

1

Preheat the grill.

2

Use a large biscuit cutter to cut out circles from the slices of bread. Toast these lightly on both sides. Information: If you don't have a large biscuit cutter, use an up-turned bowl to cut around for the bread circles.

3

Spread 1 teaspoon of tomato purée onto each piece of toast, then sprinkle with herbs. Overlap the strips of turkey ham and cheese on top, to look like bandages, leaving a small space to put the "eyes". Information: Use thin slices of roast chicken or turkey instead of ham.

4

Grill for 2 to 3 minutes to melt the cheese.

5

Put the halved tomatoes and sweetcorn on top of the faces, to look like "eyes". Eat while hot! Information: You could use white bread for this recipe, though wholemeal provides more fibre.
