Italian Sausage Spinach And Ricotta Toasts

These are like bruschetta, with no tomatoes, on steroids...serve them as hearty appetizers or as a main dish with a salad. This recipe is great to use up stuff like leftover bread and ricotta cheese....i always seem to end up with a bit of ricotta cheese from other recipes! These are great to serve the football crowd.

Steps

Brown sausage , stirring often , in a large skillet over medium heat until browned.
Add garlic and spinach and continue to cook , stirring , until spinach wilts , about 1-2 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in the ricotta cheese , nutmeg and pepper.
Preheat your broiler.
Place toast slices on a sheet or pan that can go under the broiler.
Spread the sausage-cheese mixture on each slice of toast and sprinkle with the parmesan cheese.
Place on pan and broil for 3-4 minutes , or till the cheese is browned and the topping is kind of bubbly.
You may need to do this in two batches.
Serve them hot !.
