Ricotta Redemption

You know I am not a fan of Ricotta Cheese. Maybe it was over used by the Italian mothers in my old neighborhood... maybe it was the phony way it was delivered to me on toast as a substitute for cinnamon rolls. Personally I believe it is the texture. But lately, Ricotta has been getting redemption in my kitchen.

One of the ways I have learned to use it, is to mix it with other flavors. And then spreading it on toasted bagels with fruit.

Ricotta Spread
4 oz. Ricotta
2 tablespoons Honey or Blue Agave
1 tablespoon of cinnamon
toasted bagel

Toast bagel. While it is toasting, mix Ricotta, honey or agave and cinnamon. Spread on toasted bagel. Cover with apple slices.
