Maltese bread

🥗Healthier: whole grain bread

💰Cheaper: ciabatta

Whole grain bread offers more fiber and nutrients.

Parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated Pecorino

Nutritional yeast is lower in calories and adds a cheesy flavor.

Wash and chop the escarole into bite-sized pieces.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes; sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Stir in the escarole and cook until wilted, about 3-4 minutes.

Add chopped black olives and capers; mix well.

Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Remove from heat and drizzle with lemon juice.

Toast Maltese bread until golden brown.

Spread the escarole mixture generously over the toasted bread.
