Steps:
- In a large straight-sided saute pan over medium heat, add the olive oil, pepper and a pinch of salt. Heat and toast the pepper until the oil is fragrant with the pepper scent, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the pasta until al dente, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain in a colander and allow the moisture to evaporate from the pasta for a couple of minutes.
- Add the pasta to the pan with the olive oil, raise the heat to medium-high and continuously toss the pasta with tongs to coat with the olive oil and pepper. Remove from the heat, add the lemon zest and cheese, toss and then transfer to a serving bowl and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In a food processor, combine the garlic, walnuts, arugula, and pinches of salt and pepper. Pulse to blend, adding the olive oil gradually until pureed. Set aside.
- In small bowl, combine the cheese and jam using a fork to break up the cheese, and blend it with the jam. Fold in the walnuts.
- Place the bread slices on a cookie sheet, and spray each liberally with I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!® Spray made with Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Bake for about 10 minutes until toasted; monitor the bread so you can remove it from the oven as soon as it is browned. Flip the slices over, spray the non-browned side with I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!® Spray made with Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Spread the cheese and jam on the bread, and place back into the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese starts to melt. Remove the crostini from the oven and place on a serving platter; drizzle with the arugula puree. Serve immediately warm, or at room temperature.
