This past summer when we took a trip to Santa Fe, NM we were so inspired by the culture and love for fresh food. The hotel we stayed at also had a fresh garden and the chef was all about making farm to table food for the guests. My husband would say that it was one of the best meals of his life and it would definitely rank in my top 3.

After that trip I was inspired to start another blog with farm to table recipes. Weeks and then months went by and I just decided to incorporate those recipes into A Zesty Bite. Soon after this I found out that my friend from Vintage Mixer was putting together a monthly “Eat Seasonal” post each month. She compiles a list of fresh vegetables that are in season and each blogger is to create a new recipe with one or more of those ingredients.

 

For the month of March I chose to use lemon and radishes for this Whipped Lemon Ricotta open-faced sandwich. Everyone has been obsessing over whipped hummus or feta, soI decided why not make whipped ricotta. Plus the addition of lemon juice and zest just makes it pop a little more. I enjoyed this sandwich with a little honey drizzled on top but my husband actually preferred his without.
