  • 1 small onion, chopped

  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) tomato paste
  • 1 cup (250 mL) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup (125 mL) crushed, strained tomatoes

  • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) paprika
  • 1/4 tsp (1 mL) each salt and pepper
  • 3/4 cup (175 mL) shredded Monterey Jack cheese

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking tray with parchment paper; set aside.

  3. Stir in tomato paste and cook for 1 minute.
  4. Add kidney beans, tomatoes, cumin, paprika, salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
  5. Mash mixture slightly to break up beans (mixture should still be very chunky).
  6. Cut crusts from bread; using rolling pin, roll out bread to flatten slightly.
  7. Trim edges to form squares.
  8. Divide filling among bread slices, leaving small border all around; top each with 1 tbsp (15 mL) cheese.
  9. Brush border edges of bread with egg; fold in half to enclose filling and gently press edges with fork to seal.
  10. Place on prepared baking sheet.
  11. Brush tops with egg and cut a few small slits in top; bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until bread is golden brown.
