Bruschetta
3 Tbsp
Extra virgin olive oil
6 slices
Ciabatta bread (Main)
1
Garlic clove, cut in half
Ricotta cheese and parsley spread
1 ¼ cups
Ricotta cheese (Main)
100 g
Cream cheese
¼ cup
Grated parmesan cheese
3 Tbsp
Milk
¼ tsp
Black pepper
¼ tsp
Salt
½ Tbsp
grated lemon zest
2 Tbsp
Finely chopped parsley
Topping combos
½ cup
Sliced salami, and assorted cherry tomatoes, sliced
Drizzle ½ tablespoon of the olive oil over each slice of ciabatta. Barbecue bread on both sides until crispy and starting to char on one side. Remove and rub charred sides with the cut surface of the garlic.
To make the spread, combine all ingredients except lemon zest and parsley in a food processor, then process until smooth. Transfer to a serving bowl and stir in lemon zest and parsley. Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days before serving.
Now you are ready to spread a tablespoon of spread on the bruschetta and load on the topping combos.
