Steps:
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Meanwhile, make the ricotta sauce.
- In a medium bowl, combine ricotta, olive oil, parmesan cheese, garlic, lemon zest and juice. Season with 1/4 tsp of salt and a good pinch of pepper.
- Stir until well combined, taste and make sure you're happy with the seasoning.
- In the last minute of the pasta's cooking time, reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water, then and add spinach to the pot. Stir well and push the leaves down to submerge them in water.
- After 1 minute, drain and return pasta and spinach to the same pot.
- Add the ricotta sauce and part of the reserved cooking water. Stir well to evenly coat the pasta in the sauce, add more cooking water as needed, you want a smooth and creamy texture.
- Serve immediately and garnish with grated or shaved Parmesan cheese, a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and lemon wedges if desired (for extra freshly squeezed juice, but I leave it optional). Plus, I love adding a good pinch of red pepper flakes, you might give it a go. Enjoy!

RICOTTA CREAMED SPINACH
I love creamed spinach, and I have made it many different ways, milk, cream, cream cheese, yogurt, etc. Well I had a little leftover ricotta one night and thought why not. Now, you can easily alter the amounts in this dish. Some people may want theirs more creamy, whereas I like a little less creamy, more garlic and onion or less, but this is based on my taste.

Steps:
- Spinach -- In a large saute pan, heat to medium heat and add the olive oil. Saute the shallot and garlic until tender, just a couple of minutes. Then add in the spinach. I know if looks like a lot, but it reduces very quickly. Just cook until all the spinach is wilted.
- Sauce -- As the spinach cooks, add the ricotta, cream, parmesan, nutmeg to a blender or small food processor and blend until creamy.
- Finish -- Just finish the dish by adding in the ricotta, salt and pepper and cook on medium heat until the cheese is heated through.
- Serve -- Plate up and enjoy. A little bit lighter version, but a great flavor with the onion and garlic.

LEMON RICOTTA CAKE
The addition of ricotta cheese to this lemon cake results in an airy, light, fluffy, and moist cake. The glaze will take it to another level. But if you prefer no glaze just sprinkle with powdered sugar.

ONE-POT PASTA WITH RICOTTA AND LEMON
This elegant, bright pasta dish comes together in about the same amount of time it takes to boil noodles and heat up a jar of store-bought marinara. The no-cook sauce is a 50-50 mix of ricotta and Parmesan, with the zest and juice of one lemon thrown in. That's it. To make it more filling, add peas, asparagus or spinach in the last few minutes of the pasta boiling, or stir in fresh arugula or watercress with the sauce in Step 3. It's a weeknight and for-company keeper any way you stir it.
