What can I do with ricotta?

So as you lot were so awesome with recommendations for 2 bags of spinach... what can I do with half a pot of ricotta? Not green pasta as that's where one of the bags of spinach and the first half a tub of ricotta went!!! (And it was awesome Grin )

These are lovely

Stuff chicken breasts with it and bake them on top of chopped toms or halved cherry toms and small pieces of potato so they all cook in the same time, wrap the chicken in parma ham or bacon or nothing at all. Pop some white wine in the mixture and thyme.

You can use it as a topping on moussaka/pasta bake type things as described here

Ricotta cheesecake maybe?

You need a a sprinkle of sugar and a swift grating of lemon rind and a spoon.

Definitely-or that’s a great topping on a pancake

This, if it's good ricotta. Or a drizzle of sherry on top.

Delia's spinach and ricotta lasagne recipe. Although you'll end up with the same problem with the next pot of ricotta!

Sofasogood1 · 13/03/2022 18:53

Either just a spoon or

Bake in oven with garlic and lemon rind and chilli flakes and baby tomatoes and lots of olive oil.

Once hot and delicious throw in spaghetti with a bit of pasta water to the baking pan. Stir. Eat!

Spinach and ricotta parcels?
Bit of filo.

@Sofasogood1
Do you cook the ricotta in wrapped up in foil?
Or straight into the baking tin?

Pancakes spread with ricotta and filled with pan fried red onion mushroom and spinach

Sofasogood1 · 13/03/2022 18:59

@blueflavour straight in! No need to wrap or cover. I'm pretty sure it's a version of a Jamie Oliver thing I've made many times

Cannoli

@Sofasogood1
Thank you Smile About to make it now instead of the inevitable pesto pasta!
Thanks again.

BlueFlavour · 13/03/2022 22:18

It was really good Grin definitely make it again. So easy and so nice.

WellJuhnelle · 13/03/2022 22:27

I love ricotta on a pizza. Maybe with some nduja too. Mmmm.

ouch321 · 13/03/2022 22:34

Lasagne or a pasta bake of some kind.
Jacket potatoes
Easy to use.
