Greetings foodies!
I made some killer lasagne the other night (recipe to come, I promise). Sadly, as always seems to be the case when you make a delicious pasta dish that stars ricotta cheese, there was much leftover ricotta.
What's a cook to do?! I hate to let a good cheese go to waste. So this morning for breakfast I got creative and found ways to include the fluffy, pillowy deliciousness that is ricotta cheese in our breakfast.
For my sweetie, I made the following breakfast sandwich:
Parmesan Ricotta and Egg Breakfast Sandwich with Spinach on a Toasted English Muffin.
The title pretty much says it all, but I will elaborate, since there isn't a picture to go with it (the sandwich was gone before I could get my camera out).
Spread some ricotta on one half of a toasted english muffin. Top with a fried egg, sprinkle with grated parmesan and a dash of pepper and garlic salt, then a few baby spinach leaves. Finish with the other toasted english muffin half. Serve to someone while they're still sleepy so they don't ask you what you're feeding them. He said it was "different, but good". Which to me means, "Thank you for making breakfast, kind of."
My other ricotta-related endeavor was a bit more successful. I made a waffle and topped it with ricotta, then drizzled it with honey. Delicious! In retrospect, a little lemon zest would not have been amiss, or perhaps a bit of ground cloves. But it was a breakfast success story. And it got rid of half of the leftover ricotta.
What's your favorite way to use up delicious left over ingredients?
