Description

Like my niece says, Pea and Ricotta Spread “tastes like the garden.” I love this spread because, while cheesy, it’s not goopy or heavy, and the green peas and mint add a vibrant springtime freshness.

Ingredients

  • 12 ounces, weight Frozen Peas, Thawed
  • 1-½ cup Ricotta Cheese
  • 1 clove Garlic
  • 2 teaspoons Lemon Zest
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
  • 3 leaves Fresh Mint

Preparation

Add all the ingredients to a food processor and blend so the mixture is combined, but slightly chunky.

Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.

Serve as a spread for fresh crusty bread, toasted baguette slices, crackers, or with veggies.
