Step 1

Place the beans, lemon, basil, tahini, garlic, salt and pepper into a food processor and let run. Slowly add the reserved bean liquid into the food processor until desired texture is achieved. I only used about 2 teaspoons in mine. Water can also be substituted for reserved bean liquid.

Step 2

Toast bread and then spread with 2-3 tablespoons of the white bean mixture. Top each toast with sliced tomato, red onion, salt, pepper, basil leaves and a small drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
