(NEW Recipe 🍽️) Baked Ricotta: from appetizer to pasta sauce


Hey Reader!

It's no secret Ricotta cheese is one of my favorite ingredients. It's so versatile and can be used for savory recipes (like these Salmon & Ricotta Ravioli, or Lemon Ricotta Pasta) and sweet recipes (like this Raspberry Ricotta Cake or these Lemon Ricotta Cookies).

This week we go even further, with a recipe that can be both a delicious appetizer (as a dip or crostini topping) AND a flavorful pasta sauce!

Baked Ricotta with Cherry Tomatoes and Onions

Creamy, aromatic, and bursting with Mediterranean flavor, this Easy Baked Ricotta with Cherry Tomatoes and Onions is one of those dishes that can do it all. It’s perfect as a warm dip for crackers, a topping for crostini, or tossed with pasta for a quick, flavorful meal.
