Bruschetta or Crostini for Hay Hay It's Donna Day.  Add/Read Comments

Of course I have heard of Donna Day, after all I keep the IMBB site up-to-date with all these foodie blog events , but I have never participated; Make it simple and I'll have a bash at creating something.

And so it is with Donna Day #4 hosted by one of my favourite food-porn writers Bron Marshall. The request for this event was to create two crostini/bruschetta type dishes and what we have here are my creations. Mighty pleased I am with them too. Topping a little toasted French bread are thin slices of juicy nectarine partnered with a small spoonful of mascarpone and a roll of prosciutto. At the front are mozzarella coupled with half a cherry tomato and a herbed ricotta. The latter is simply basil and chives pounded to a paste and mixed with ricotta. Sadly the photographs don't really do my little creations justice, but that's what comes of imbibing a couple of large rum and cokes and half a bottle of white!
