12 diagonal slices (1/2 inch/1 cm thick) baguette
1 cup (250 mL) thinly sliced roasted sweet red pepper
1 cup (250 mL) shredded arugula
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tbsp (25 mL) extra-virgin olive oil
Pinch each salt and pepper
1 cup (250 mL) ricotta cheese

1/4 cup (50 mL) extra-virgin olive oil

Rosemary Oil: In small saucepan, heat oil and rosemary over medium-high heat for 3 minutes or just until rosemary turns beige. Strain through fine-mesh sieve into small bowl; discard rosemary.
Place bread on baking sheet; brush tops with rosemary oil. Broil for about 1 minute or until golden; let cool.
