How do I get the tomatoes and garlic perfectly roasted?

Roast grape tomatoes and chopped garlic at 400 degreesF for about 20 minutes, stirring halfway, until they are soft, juicy, and slightly charred.

What kind of bread works best for these toasts?

Any sliced bread will work, but a sturdy bread will hold up well to the roasted tomato topping and melty vegan mozzarella without becoming soggy.

Can I use a different type of vegan cheese?

Yes, while shredded or sliced vegan mozzarella is suggested, you can experiment with other melty vegan cheeses you enjoy for this recipe.

How can I ensure the vegan cheese melts properly?

Broil the bread with a layer of vegan cheese for about 5 minutes, or until it's melty and golden, keeping a close eye on it to prevent burning.

How should I store leftover Roasted Garlic and Tomato Toasts?

These toasts are best enjoyed fresh. If you have leftovers, store the roasted tomatoes separately and assemble just before serving, or reheat briefly in an oven or toaster oven to crisp the bread and re-warm the toppings.

How to Prepare Roasted Garlic and Tomato Toasts [Vegan]

Preheat oven to 400°F. Add grape tomatoes and garlic to a rimmed cooking pan and drizzle with olive oil, making sure everything is lightly coated.
Roast for about 20 minutes or so, checking and gently stirring around the tomatoes after about 10 minutes. When they are soft and juicy with a few charred spots, remove them from the oven. Carefully, smush them down.
Turn your oven to broil. Arrange your bread slices on another baking sheet and add a layer of vegan cheese. Place under the broiler and cook for about 5 minutes, or until melty and golden. Take out and arrange a few leaves of spinach and a layer of roasted tomatoes. You can eat it right away or place this under the broiler for a minute or two to re-warm the tomatoes and wilt the spinach.
