BALSAMIC BLACKBERRY BRUSCHETTA with HONEY WHIPPED

BALSAMIC BLACKBERRY BRUSCHETTA with HONEY WHIPPED RICOTTA! Sounds fancy, looks fancy but is oh so simple!😉[AD]
.
Seriously though, who doesn’t love a good appetizer right?! Because I’m all about them this time of year! And for this fun bruschetta idea I used @sprouts Extra Virgin Olive Oil of Italy (which has a rich full-bodied taste making it perfect for drizzling over cooked meats & soups) & paired it with some tangy blackberries, creamy ricotta & a sprinkle of fresh basil!
Trust me loves, this is one appetizer you won’t be able to get enough of!😉

Hope you’re having a great Thursday!😊💕

Balsamic Blackberry Bruschetta🍇
2 cups blackberries
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 cup whole milk ricotta
1 Tbsp honey
1 French baguette, sliced
2 Tbsp olive oil
Fresh basil, sliced thin
.
1. Rub the baguette slices with olive oil & toast in the oven at 400 degrees for 5 minutes.
2. Whip the ricotta & honey together with an electric mixer or food processor.
3. Heat 1 cup of blackberries & balsamic vinegar on the stove. Mash the blackberries & let the sauce simmer for 1-2 minutes. (It will be very thick.) Pour the “sauce” over your remaining blackberries & stir.
4. Top your toasted bread slices with the ricotta, blackberries, a drizzle of honey & fresh basil!

Believe it or not loves I do actually eat other salads besides kale.😂 And I feel like I’ve been living off this one for the last week! It’s so simple, made with all fresh ingredients & the dressing is one of my go-to dressings I use on practically everything!
