Quick and delicious, this nutrient-packed garden dish is irresistible!
Ingredients:
  • 1 (about 400g) sourdough baguette (French breadstick), thinly sliced
  • 300g green beans, topped
  • 2 bunches asparagus, woody ends trimmed
  • 375g (1 1/2 cups) low-fat ricotta
  • 82.50 ml chopped fresh mixed herbs (such as continental parsley, chives and basil)
  • 2 tsp finely grated lemon rind
  • 1 garlic clove, peeled, halved
  • 1 bunch radishes, trimmed, washed, to serve
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 200°C. Lightly coat bread slices with olive oil spray and arrange in a single layer on 2 large baking trays. Bake, flipping halfway, for 10 minutes or until golden.
  • Simmer the beans and asparagus in boiling water for 3-4 minutes until vibrant and al dente. Quickly cool them in cold water and drain.
  • Mix together the ricotta, fresh herbs, and lemon zest in a medium bowl. Season generously with salt and pepper before transferring to small serving dishes.
  • Infuse the crostini with the aroma of garlic by rubbing one side of each. Enjoy with a spread of flavorful herbed ricotta, accompanied by beans, fresh asparagus, and crunchy radishes.
