This recipe takes a classic Italian concept of topping toasted bread, and turns it into a sweet treat for the entire family.

Toast the bread slices for about 3 minutes.
In the meantime, place the sugar, lemon zest and lemon juice in a medium-sized saucepan over medium-high heat, and cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes.
Drop in the strawberries, stir and continue to cook for 1 minute.
Spread the prepared bread slices with 1 tablespoon of the mascarpone cheese, and then evenly spoon on the strawberry mixture.
