Ingredients

4clovesgarlic, sliced

2tablespoonscanola oiloravocado oil

2ripe beefsteak tomatoes, cut into 4 slices each

¼teaspoonsalt, divided

2large egg yolks (see Tip)

3tablespoonsthinly sliced fresh basil, divided

1teaspoonlemon juice

½teaspoonground pepper

¼teaspoonwhite-wine vinegar

¼teaspoonground mustard

2tablespoonsextra-virgin olive oil

8sliceswhole-wheat sourdough bread, toasted

Directions

Combine garlic and canola (or avocado) oil in a small skillet; cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is softened and golden, about 10 minutes. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a small bowl. Reserve the oil and the garlic separately.

Arrange tomato slices in a single layer on a paper-towel-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon salt and let stand for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine egg yolks, 1 tablespoon basil, lemon juice, pepper, vinegar, mustard, the reserved garlic and the remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt in a mini food processor. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in olive oil and the reserved garlic oil; process until the mixture is thick and creamy.

Spread the aioli on 1 side of each bread slice. Top 4 slices with 2 tomato slices each. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons basil and top with the remaining bread slices, aioli-side down.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
