Lidia Bastianich Instagram – Crostini Two Ways: Tomato & Ricotta and Kale w/ Fontina. Simple, easy and delicious! Crostini and bruschette are part of everybody’s vocabulary and table, and these crostini are tasty and easy to make. The good part is that you can prepare them all in advance and just pop them in the oven when your guests arrive. When making this crostini, or for that matter any crostini or bruschetta, try using whole—grain or whole—wheat bread. My grandmother always used a multigrain bread that contained some bran. So, if you are thinking Italian, think rustic and healthy. Link to video in my bio. Buon Gusto! #LidiasRecipes #LidiasItaly #LidiasKitchen #LidiaBastianich #ItalianFood #25YearsofLidia #FromLidiasTableToYours #LidiasSoundtrack
