Steps:
- Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals or turn a gas grill to medium-high heat.
- Combine the ricotta, scallions, dill, chives, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and set aside. Cut the bread in half and cut each half into 6 thick slices to make 12 slices total.
- When the grill is hot, brush the bread with olive oil and grill on each side for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove from the grill and rub each slice of bread with the cut side of the garlic clove. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and spread with the herbed ricotta. Serve 2 warm slices per person with the green salad on the side.
- Set a large sieve over a deep bowl. Dampen 2 layers of cheesecloth with water and line the sieve with the cheesecloth.
- Pour the milk and cream into a stainless-steel or enameled pot such as Le Creuset. Stir in the salt. Bring to a full boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat and stir in the vinegar. Allow the mixture to stand for 1 minute until it curdles. It will separate into thick parts (the curds) and milky parts (the whey).
- Pour the mixture into the cheesecloth-lined sieve and allow it to drain into the bowl at room temperature for 20 to 25 minutes, occasionally discarding the liquid that collects in the bowl. The longer you let the mixture drain, the thicker the ricotta. (I tend to like mine on the thicker side, but some prefer it moister.) Transfer the ricotta to a bowl, discarding the cheesecloth and any remaining whey. Use immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. The ricotta will keep refrigerated for 4 to 5 days.
- Place the salad greens in a large bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Pour enough dressing on the salad to moisten. Toss and serve.

BRUSCHETTA (WITH OR WITHOUT CHEESE)
I basically used the recipes that I had to my disposal and a little bit of common sense as to what tastes right. I usually make this for just two people and I eyeball the amounts, so they may need to be adjusted... just use what you think looks right, and use as much cheese as you want. Fresh ingredients are best as always, but dried will do.

Steps:
- Combine tomatoes, onion, 5 teaspoons of olive oil, salt, pepper, basil, and oregano and mix. (Use your best judgment when adding in seasonings if there's something you know you really like or don't like; don't add too much of anything, especially salt/pepper) - cool in fridge while preparing the rest.
- Combine butter or olive oil with garlic and spread evenly over the baguette. Make sure the baguette is covered right up to the edges, or else they will burn much quicker than the middle.
- Broil baguette open-faced until lightly toasted or until desired doneness.
- Add tomato and onion mixture on top.
- Slice baguette diagonally (for aesthetics) into desired size and sprinkle the basil on top, serve.
- If desired, before slicing add grated cheese on top and warm in the oven at 375 degrees until cheese melts; slice, serve, and enjoy. You may sprinkle more basil on top at this point if so desired or wait until this point to add the basil at all.

BEST EVER BRUSCHETTA
I went through a major bruschetta phase and tried many many recipes until I found the perfect one. This was originally Guy Fieri's but is slightly adapted to my taste after making it about a billion times. Cookingt time is marinating time.

CHEDDAR BRUSCHETTA
Here is a fine appetizer and a different take on bruschetta. It still has the tomatoes you love but adds some cheddar to make it a creamier finger food that melts in your mouth. I served it to my guests and family and they really enjoyed it. There were no leftovers so make a double batch if you have a really big crowd. Served hot from the oven makes this one you can serve any time of year. I found this recipe from Vicki Thompson in a 2009 Taste of Home Summer appetizers booklet. Makes two dozen of the French baguette size but if your French bread slices are larger it will make one dozen. Enjoy! ChefDLH
