Using a vegetable peeler, shave the asparagus into thin ribbons.

In a bowl, combine shaved asparagus, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.

Mix gently to coat the asparagus evenly with the dressing.

Toast the ciabatta slices until golden brown.

Spread a layer of goat cheese on each toasted slice.

Top the goat cheese with the dressed asparagus ribbons.
