Instructions
Brush baguette slices with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake at 350 F for about 4 6 minutes. Cool and reserve.
Stir together the ricotta, chives , dill, parsley, lemon zest, 1/8 teaspoon salt , and ¼ teaspoon of the black pepper. Cover and set in the refrigerator until ready to assemble the toasts.
Heat 2 ½ Tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook for 90 seconds, stirring often. Add the mushrooms. Cook for 2 more minutes, stirring often. Add the tomatoes, continue to cook stirring constantly, for about 3 minutes, until the tomatoes begin to burst and the mushrooms are tender. If you have some larger tomatoes mixed in, pricking them with a fork will help them to burst.
Remove from the heat and stir in ¼ teaspoon salt and the remaining ¼ teaspoon of black pepper.
Transfer the arugula to a small bowl. Toss with the lemon juice , 2 tsp olive oil, and the remaining 1/8 teaspoon of salt.
To build toasts, layer the baguette with the herbed ricotta, mushroom and shallot mixture and top with the dressed arugula. ENJOY!
