You know that we bought a big ricotta from the market and then we wanted to make something different with it!. I called the number on the back to see if they had any recipes other than the same lasagna ones!. They said they did not so I thought I'd make something up!. This is what I came up with!.
I took the ricotta and put in a sauce pan with some milk and melted it!. I seasoned it with salt pepper garlic salt chives!. I added some cheddar cheese and when it was creamy enough, I poured it over some boiled potatoes that I cut into cubes!. It went fast!. It also has been used since then for noodles!.
Hope this helps :)Www@FoodAQ@Com
