Drain the zucchini first, otherwise it will become too watery.
Delicious. I reduced the amount of zucchini by half, and added 1/2 clove of pureed fresh garlic. I mixed in shredded mint instead of using it as a garnish
I rubbed the crostini with split garlic cloves. This makes a lot and we have over half left over for salad. I made homemade ricotta several days before which dried out so I added some very fruity olive oil to it to moisten it...great. A real hit, all around.
Salted and drained the zucchini first, and added lemon zest, garlic powder, and Calabrian chili for a bit more flavor. Great and quick way to use up zucchini!
Too much ricotta imo
Easy, quick and and a nice presentation. I used a sour dough bread , added some arugula under the zucchini ricotta mixture. It made a nice guest lunch. Tasty.
