  1. Absolutely delicious! Easy to make; I was generous with the pepper which was perfect with the sweetness of the ricotta and the brightness of the lemon. Really loved this - thanks for sharing the recipe! Made for ZWT9, The Apron String Travelers
     
  2. Really liked the lemon and black pepper flavors in this. I'll be making this for the next pot luck I go to! Made for ZWT9 the Hot Pink Panthers.
     
  3. We love baked ricotta and this was no exception. The lemon especially highlighted the dip, especially when I serve it with hot peperoncini. Very simple and quick to make as well. Thanks for sharing. ~s
     
  4. Made as written for the Sweet December event. This is a tasty & easy-fix. I do think it can be served hot or cold. I added extra garlic & chose a different presentation. I served it w/flatbread made for another game & glazed ham (also made for the Sweet December event). I will prob serve it cold or reduce the amt of lemon juice next time as it tended to separate from the mixture when heated. Thx for sharing this delicious recipe w/us.
     
  5. Delish! Loved all the flavors and I added extra pepper as well. Can't wait to serve this for Company. : ) Made for Best of 2013 Cookbook tag, March, 2014.
