Instructions
- Heat oven to 375F (190C) and prepare a baking dish for strawberries.

Notes
- Enhance strawberry flavor by using ripe, in-season berries for maximum sweetness and caramelization.
- Experiment with different honey varieties like lavender or wildflower to add unique depth to the roasted strawberries.
- For a lighter version, use Greek yogurt instead of ricotta and swap honey with a low-calorie sweetener like stevia.
- Make this recipe gluten-free by using gluten-free bread or replacing toast with rice cakes for a crispy alternative base.
