Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4-6 asparagus spears (ends trimmed, chopped into thirds and thinly sliced lengthwise into 2-inch pieces)
  • 1-2 large radishes very thinly sliced (preferably on the thinnest setting of a mandolin)
  • 1/2 cup partly skimmed ricotta
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
  • 4 slices whole grain or sourdough bread
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • honey to drizzle on top (optional)

Instruction

  • Lay asparagus slices on a plate and drizzle with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, a little salt and pepper. Set aside and let marinate for 20 minutes.
  • Turn the broiler setting on your oven on.
  • In a cooking tray, lay pieces of bread and spread ricotta on top.
  • Add a few slices of radishes and season with salt and pepper.
  • Top with asparagus slices (I like a criss cross pattern) and broil in the oven for 3 minutes.
  • Take the toasts out of the oven and let them cool for a minute.
  • Drizzle a little honey on top and serve immediately.
