Ingredients  

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries or handful
  • 6 slices of baguettes
  • ½ cup ricotta cheese full fat
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 4 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
  • pinch of salt and pepper
  • 1 stem Italian basil
  • 1 clove garlic

Instructions 

  • In a large pan, drizzle 2 TBSP of olive oil into the pan and toast the sliced baguettes for 3 minutes on medium heat or until golden brown and crispy. I toast mine on a cast iron pan.
  • While the baguettes are toasting, prepare the strawberry topping. Mince the garlic, dice up strawberries, and chop basil leaves. Combine in a bowl.
  • Drizzle the remaining olive oil, balsamic vinegar, cracked black pepper and salt into the bowl with the strawberries. Toss together.
  • Transfer the toast onto a plate and spread ricotta cheese generously. Can use more or less! Spoon the strawberry salad onto toasts. Enjoy!
