Description

A quick, easy and oh so delicious appetizer that adds a little flavor to your everyday cooking.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups of beans (fava preferably)
  • salt and pepper
  • olive oil
  • french bread
  • ricotta
  • fresh mint
  • red wine vinegar

Instructions

  1. Heat broiler. While you do this boil 1/2 cup of salter water. Then put 2 cups of drained fava beans (I had to use Lima because I couldn’t find any fava at the local grocery store I was at.) in the skillet for about 5 minutes. Drain the beans and then add salt, pepper and oil and a tablespoon of red wine vinegar with 1/4 cup of mint.
  2. Once finished, toast the bread. When the bread is finished toast the cheese on the bread and the bean mixture on top!
