Garlic Roasted Tomatoes and Toast

Why You'll Love this Tomatoes and Toast:

• Quick enough for lunch or a light weeknight dinner.
• Uses simple, everyday ingredients & comes together in under 20 minutes.
• Looks impressive but couldn't be easier to make.

Ingredient Notes:

• Cherry or grape tomatoes: Roasting brings out their natural sweetness and makes them incredibly jammy.
• Ricotta: Creamy, mild, and the perfect contrast to the roasted tomatoes.
• Garlic: Don't be shy, it's one of the best parts.

• Crusty bread: Sourdough, Italian bread, or a good baguette all work beautifully.
