Instructions

Preheat oven to 230°C (450°F). Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven.

Drain and rinse beans in a colander, then transfer to a large baking dish.

Peel, halve, and mince shallots; add to the baking dish along with tomato sauce, maple syrup, Dijon, Worcestershire, and spices. Stir to combine.

Place baking dish on lower rack of the oven (it doesn't have to be fully heated) and bake, stirring halfway through, until beans are soft and sauce has thickened, 15-20 minutes.

Meanwhile, wash and dry the fresh produce.

Place yogurt, mayo, water, vinegar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl; whisk to combine the dressing.

Trim and slice celery crosswise into thin pieces; trim and medium dice cucumbers. Add both to the bowl with the dressing and set aside.

Coarsely grate cheddar.

Divide bread slices between two large baking sheet pans; working in batches, place on upper rack of the oven and toast, flipping once, until golden, 4-5 minutes. Remove from oven.

When the baked beans are done, remove from oven and stir well. Divide beans between toast slices and top each with an even layer of cheese.

Working in batches, return baking sheets to upper rack of the oven and bake until cheese is melted, 3-4 minutes. Remove from oven.

Just before serving, add mixed greens to the bowl with the dressing and toss to combine the salad.

Divide "baked beans on toast" between plates and serve with salad on the side. Enjoy!
