Things I Put Ricotta On
Posted by terrepruitt on May 10, 2021
You may be familiar with the story from last year: My husband has been doing the shopping since we have been sheltering-in-place. One time I asked him to get ricotta . . . the only kind I know comes in a specific container and is in a specific spot in the store . . . I described both to him. He came back with different kind. He said that the one I wanted wasn’t there and I have experienced that myself so I am not saying he didn’t see it. He said he got some other kind from the deli case (THE DELI CASE? $$$) It doesn’t matter, what he brought home is heaven in a tub and I love. (It turns out is doesn’t cost more than the other brand.) Since I think this new-to-me-brand is so yummy I have been putting it on many things. While I used to put the other kind on things when I remembered I am going out of my way to put this stuff in and on things.
Things I put ricotta on:
My Quesadillas as you may have seen.
My breakfast sandwich
Our salads
Our pastas one was just the cheese and the other one I added to the sauce
And, our pizza, of course, that is what started this whole thing
I wish I would have taken a picture of what I used it on today for lunch. I toasted some sliced sour dough bread, spread on some ricotta, then piled on some chicken, sprinkled on a little shredded mix of cheese and toasted it more – to warm up the chicken and melt the cheese. It was so good. I was eating so late and was so very hungry I didn’t think of it being a great addition to “Things I Put Ricotta On”.
It is yummy.
Do you put ricotta on anything?

No, because I don’t eat dairy

Oh, I am so glad that I don’t have intolerable allergies to dairy because I would be so sad without cheese. Cheese is truly one of God’s gift to man! 🙂

We eat gluten- and dairy-free due to certain health issues and it is a sorry state of affairs. Casseroles and Mac and cheese were sorely missed. However we could d some ricotta cheese made with almond milk and we are back in business. We use it anytime we want creamy goodness and would have used vaguely similar products in the past. We love this product and it has gone a long way to help us to have an almost-satisfying food life.

Cheese is the last craving to go. It has been a couple of years and I still miss it.

Thank goodness some are even dairy-free. Poor shadows of real cheese, but better than nothing.
