Every season carries vibrancy. You just have to look for it. This winter I’m loving this show stopping toast. The combination of textures is definitely one to experience. With the crunchy toast base, creamy ricotta and burst of bright citrus…here I am, dreaming about it all over again : ) .
Enjoy it for breakfast or lunch with your favorite mimosa. Enjoy it solo, or share a meal with friends, in which case, just increase the recipe by 2 or 4. If you’re keen on a dairy free version, pick up this plain cream cheese and swap it out for the ricotta. What can I say. Perfect.
Vegan? Omit the egg, it’ll still be totally delish. Promise.
Thank you to those of you who joined in on the creative development of this recipe! Stay tuned for more opportunities to be apart of the conversation. Excited for the next : ).
