Toast with Tomato Confit and Tofu Spread
I don’t know about you, but I personally love making my own tomato confit and using it in a variety of recipes throughout the week. In collaboration with Aliments du Québec, I’m serving it for breakfast with a super creamy tofu spread! The star of the recipe is definitely Savoura‘s tomato, a colourful, tasty cherry tomato grown in greenhouses here in Quebec.
Enjoy!
