    3) Rub one side with the cut clove of garlic.

    4) In a small bowl add the lemon zest, ricotta, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Mix it all together well.

    5) Spread each bruschetta with the ricotta mixture and drizzle the top with some good quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

    6) As you are ready to serve, dress your greens with the dressing, and serve it along side the bruschetta. Brilliant first course!
