Ricotta Cheese Pasta – Mediterranean Diet – Quick and Easy

 Ricotta Cheese Pasta


 

We had this Ricotta Cheese Pasta with our Balsamic Chicken tonight. It was very easy to multi task while the Balsamic Chicken was coming together.  Just three ingredients (plus the salt) and it’s GOOD

 

Today’s tip

When you cook pasta you don’t have to wait for the water to boil before you put the pasta in. Just put the pot of water on the stove add the salt and the pasta. As the water heats up so will the pasta. It cuts down on the time to get it ready to serve. 

 

Like we just said. Put the pot of water on and add the pasta and the salt. When the pasta is just shy of getting done the way that you like it done add the butter. When the butter has melted gently stir it up getting all of the pasta coated. 

Then add the ricotta cheese and stir that into the mix. When all of the pasta is evenly coated with the butter and ricotta cheese combo serve up your Ricotta Cheese Pasta. Garnish with some chopped fresh (or dried) basil or parsley. Now, wasn’t that easy?
