You could easily scale up the recipe if making for more than two. Chop the tomatoes a little in advance and slice the cheese, then simply toast the bread and pile high to serve.
Ingredients for low FODMAP tomato, basil and sardine toasts
Gluten free bread – While it’s true that good gluten free bread will make this recipe taste even better, it’s also true that grilling and slathering most gluten free bread in garlic-infused oil will cover a multitude of sins
Large tomatoes on the vine – apart from the good visuals, vine ripened tomatoes often taste sweeter which is why I can for them. Add large, ripe tomatoes are likely to be delicious here. See before for my FODMAP tomato notes if useful for you!
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper – a seasoned tomato is a happy tomato!
Sardines in olive oil – the Ortiz brand is the bees-knees if your budget stretches, but any will do
Garlic-infused oil – Garlic infused oil is such a great way to add that garlic flavour without FODMAPS for those that need to avoid, but you can sub in regular olive oil also
Parmigiano Reggiano – I love the slithers of salty, creamy parmesan cheese alongside the toasts (citrusy olives are good too) but if a fish and cheese combo is sacrilege for you then simply omit
Lemon – the most delicious flavour enhancer, I love using lemon in all kinds of cooking and this recipe uses both the zest and juice for a citrussy hit
Small pinch of chilli flakes – just for a little heat
Basil – fresh and fragrant, basil is such a good match for tomato. Use as much or as little as you like
