This is a third course that I concocted one evening when I needed something else to serve for dinner.

Made with just a few ingredients — hand-dipped ricotta, honey, lemon, and orange zest — it came together quickly for a satisfying third course.

The kids loved it, and it’s a delicious alternative to milk as a way to include calcium in everyone's dinner.

Ingredients

  • Hand-dipped or a good brand of ricotta
  • Honey — a flavored honey like lavender or orange adds a nice touch
  • Lemon zest and/or orange zest

Hand-dipped ricotta and orange honey. I bought the honey at Yummy Bazaar — a fabulous online store with prices much lower than other popular sites. Have fun looking around!

Instructions

Place a scoop of ricotta in a small ramekin or bowl

Drizzle the honey over the ricotta

Zest a lemon and/or an orange on top – it’s pretty and nutritious!

Enjoy! And remember, serving a third course helps you pull together a quick and easy dinner.

A Microplane is a handy tool and makes zesting fast and easy! 

Ramekins are also handy to have on hand!
