Beans on Toast

For my first chronicled culinary exploration, I chose something simple, but tasty.  I'm a huge fan of British film, music, and television, and on many occasions, there are references to beans and toast.  As I'm sure most Americans do, I pictured something along the lines of Busch's Baked Beans on a slice of bread.  After doing a bit of research, I found that the beans in Beans on Toast are actually in tomato sauce and not sweet like the baked beans we normally think of.

I started my search for the recommended beans for Beans on Toast and stumbled across them at Publix.  I picked up a couple cans of Heinz Vegetarian Beans. When I got home from work, I was famished and didn't have time to make something too involved.  I opened the cupboard to get a can of soup, and lo and behold, there sat the beans.  So I popped them in a pan and got them nice and toasty.  Then I toasted some bread and fried up an egg.  I didn't know what to expect, but it was darn good.  Beans on Toast has officially made it into my culinary repertoire.
