Ingredients!
For the Pink Whipped Ricotta:
- 10 oz fresh ricotta cheese
- 2 small roasted beets, peeled and chopped
- 6 cloves of roasted garlic
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- zest of 1 lemon
- juice of 1/2 of a lemon
- 1 teaspoon salt
For the Toast:
- 4 slices of your favorite bread (sourdough or french loaf work great)
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter or olive oil
- crumbled feta and chopped basil (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
- Step 1: Roast the Beets Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the beets thoroughly, then wrap them in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast for about 45 minutes to an hour, or until the beets are fork-tender. Once done, let them cool before peeling and chopping them into small pieces.
- Or make it easier by buying already cooked beets!
- Step 2: Whipping the Ricotta In a food processor or blender, combine beets, ricotta, garlic, olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, & salt. Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy, ensuring the pink color is evenly distributed throughout the ricotta.
- Step 3: Prepare the Toast Over medium heat, add olive oil or butter to a skillet and toast your bread. (Or in toaster oven)
- Step 4: Assemble the Pink Whipped Ricotta Toast Now comes the fun part! Place the pink whipped ricotta mixture inside a piping bag or ziploc bag with one corner cut off. Using a snake like pattern, pipe the mixture over each piece of toast, covering the top completely.
- Step 5: Garnish with Crumbled Feta and Chopped Basil. For an extra touch of WOW, sprinkle some crumbled feta and chopped basil over the Pink Whipped Ricotta Toast. The contrasting colors will complement the pink hue of the ricotta, making it look like a true Barbie-inspired treat.
