Easy Whipped Ricotta Toast

 If you’re in a pinch for time and need a quick appetizer, snack, breakfast, lunch, or dinner (truly the gamut!) look no further than whipped ricotta toast. In just 15 minutes you’ll have toasty bread topped with light, creamy, and delicious whipped ricotta and a drizzle of lemon-thyme honey. Plus, the opportunities for more toppings are endless (more on that below).

As if Italy hasn’t offered us enough delicious dishes (hello, lasagna!) we can also thank them for bringing ricotta into our lives. The word ricotta means “recooked” in Italian. This cheese is made by recooking the leftover whey from other cheeses, like provolone and mozzarella. If you’ve got 30 minutes you can make your own ricotta right at home with just a few pantry items or simply pick up a tub at your grocer.
