Ricotta spread on toast and drizzled with honey is undeniably one of my favourite snacks.

A dash of salt adds the perfect touch!

Now, I’m adding a twist by crafting these toasts to be more of a lunch option or ideal for serving as canapés.

Combining asparagus and peas with refreshing mint and zesty lemon complements the creamy ricotta and sweet honey. It’s a delightful combination that’s sure to impress!
