Instructions
- This recipe originated on an episode of Giada Entertains. Episode: Jade’s After Party.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Brush the slices of baguette with the olive oil and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Season with the salt and bake for 5 to 8 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove the crostini to a wire rack to cool.
- On the same rimmed baking sheet, toss together the broccoli, olive oil and salt. Spread evenly on the tray and roast for 15 minutes, flipping the broccoli half way through, or until the broccoli is browned in spots and crispy. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the parmesan cheese.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl whisk together the ricotta, olive oil and salt.
- To assemble, take a crostini and spread with a small amount of the cheese. Pile on a few pieces of broccoli and sprinkle with the chopped almonds.
