Cheesy Herb Veggie Toast

1.Preheat your oven's broiler or set a toaster oven to high broil.

2.Lightly toast the bread slices on both sides until just golden and slightly crisp. Optionally, brush each slice lightly with olive oil before toasting for extra crispness.

3.In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and ketchup until smooth to create a tangy spread.

4.Spread the mayonnaise-ketchup mixture evenly over each toasted bread slice.

5.Distribute the finely chopped fresh vegetables evenly on top of the spread on each slice.

6.Place one slice of cheese over the vegetables on each toast, ensuring it covers the toppings well.

7.Sprinkle dried oregano evenly over the cheese, followed by chili flakes to add a subtle heat.

8.Season lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

9.Place the prepared toasts under the broiler for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted, bubbly, and slightly golden. Watch carefully to avoid burning.

10.Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute before serving to allow the cheese to set slightly.

11.Serve warm as a quick snack or light meal, optionally garnished with a few fresh herb leaves or a drizzle of olive oil.
