Lemon ricotta pasta & spinach

Je l’ai fait avec du fromage à la crème fouetté au lieu du ricotta. Je n’avais pas de parmesan. J’ai mis du jus de pickle pour ajouter du salé, au lieu de l’eau des pâtes.

Yummy!

i tried with farfalle pasta, really good

Very lemony, the ricotta gave it a weird grainy texture

simple, but good - I added feta & grilled tofu on top (w/ rosemary & lemon pepper) - could use more… maybe sun dried tomatoes 👌🏻

Added shrimp and tomato like some ppl suggested. Very good! Im sure it would also be great by itself

Add shrimp!

Very quick and easy to make. Creamy, delicious and filling.

A lovely light pasta dish that has the hints of lemon. I used brown pasta and it was lovely 😍 , doesn't take long to do as well

Good and simple ingredients, although not super quick. I don't like grating cheese or zesting lemons

Added peas for a bit more green. Also added a bit of lemon pepper seasoning and a pinch of chili pepper to add more flavour.

It’s good but very filling/almost dense. I’ll make it again but may tweak ratios to be more balanced for my preference.

I slightly changed it for a half batch to work, and added chicken to top. This sause is definitely good.

Added mozarella and used up kale I had laying around instead of spinach.

I used spinach pasta and it came out really delicious even though my lemons were sadly waxed, so I could not add zest.

No flavor, grainy texture, and not enough sauce

I only had skim ricotta and I forgot to reserve pasta water, so the flavor was quite bland and the texture was too thick. But maybe if I follow the recipe next time I’ll like it better! 😬

Needs more lemon in my opinion but is light and delicious

amazing and easy. used whole wheat linguine. new go-to recipe.

The flavor was good, but it left an uncomfortable mouthfeel. Probably won't be using this specific recipe again.

Super tasty! I added a side salad and garlic bread

Quick, Easy and tasty.

Can substitute feta for ricotta

The tastewas quite n8ce, maybe a bit too much lemon and quite a thick consistency but other that that it was good.

Loved this so much, very light in flavor. Added chicken. Will make it again.

Don't use too much water for a more refined sauce.

I liked this dish a lot! I added marinated artichoke hearts and it helped cut the richness of the cheese.

Had to sub kale, so I would love to try again with spinach. It needs like two cups of lemon, and something spicy for kick! I used the spicy cilantro sauce, pepper flakes could also be good. Try something thicker than angel hair too.

10/10

Was super easy to make. Used a pasta other than spaghetti. For my taste, the dish needed more salt and pepper. Otherwise, tastes great.

Very easy, if you dont have time…. We added smoked chicken for Some extra protein.

Lemon juice overpowered cheese, whish I read reviews before adding it. Not too bad but probably will not make again.

My husband really loved it. Going to add mushrooms next time to see how it taste.

Maybe more garlic and pepper

I used cream cheese instead of ricotta cheese and it came out great! Very filling though.

Made with Angel Hair pasta. Difficult to mix evenly. Try other short, tube pasta next time. Def save pasta water! Needs more garlic than recipe (used x 1 huge clove) Fast! On table in 20 mins. Served with Caesar salad. Incorporate leftover white wine somewhere. * try sauté shallot with garlic, spinach and wine then add to pasta Needs the pepper flakes and drizzle at end. Needs quick squeeze lemon at serving. Quick, easy and tasty! Try with leftover Rotisserie Chick next time .

The spinach went to the bottom of the pan, so definitely give it a stir before serving. One small lemon was perfect. Such a light flavor and texture. It was very quick and easy to put together.

Just ok. The ricotta texture with spaghetti is not my favorite - better used on pizza or in lasagne/baked dishes.

Very customizable! Enjoyable on its own, but I added mushrooms, red pepper flakes, and pomegranate for a transcendent experience. One of the best things I've ever made.

Nice and easy to make and fresh with plenty of lemon. Leftovers arent super microwave friendly, ended up pretty dry so maybe I'd recommend going back for seconds instead :--)

Pros: flavor is FRESH. Lemony cheesy pasta-y spinach comes through in delicious waves. It’s not complex but excites the palate. The citrus aspect really makes you do a double take if you’re not used to lemon in savory dishes, but it’s quite a nice change. The spinach adds a much appreciated earthy umami to break up the presence of the lemon. We were able to accommodate an entire lb of pasta with the amount of sauce it produced! If you like it extra saucy, I’d go for the half lb of pasta. I also added a little red pepper flake (read: a lot). Cons: Recipe needs a little more salt! The cheeses aren’t quite enough to boost the flavor. While I didn’t mind the intense lemon flavor, I’ll likely reduce the lemon juice next time to perhaps half - my partner remarked that it was a smidge overwhelming. Overall it lands a place in my cookbook for Ease and Flavor 🙂

would add more lemon next time

Definitely needs more spices. Fresh parsley and thyme have worked well for me. I also added red pepper flakes. Photo comes from iteration two of this recipe, and iteration one had peas. I think that adding peas and/or bell peppers would elevate the dish significantly. A little bit of finely diced onion and garlic sauteed with the spinach wouldn't hurt, either. As others have noted on this recipe, don't use so much lemon juice. I find 2.5 tbsp is plenty.

I diced up some chicken and cooked it on the stove with garlic powder, dill weed, tarragon, salt and pepper. I probably could have used a little more water to help the sauce mix together with the food but it was very good! Added some red pepper flakes to my bowl and it gave it the kick it needed

I added shrimp to this!!!

Made it a bit too lemony

I added some onion powder and I always take liberty with salt...my boys loved it

My lemon was large, so I used all of the zest and half the juice.

Couldn't find ricotta so exchanged it with cream cheese Lowered the amount of lemon juice Used nero pasta instead, reason why it's black Also toasted the pasta in olive oil and garlic before boilling it in pork broth (both adds a lot of flavour). Added shrimp and squid to the mix aswell Turned out great! Suggest adding some spices like basil or Italian spice mix for extra flavor

I would probably suggest a cream cheese instead to create thin costistancy. Did not reheat well either.

Added left over roast chicken - warmed through in olive oil, chillie flakes and lemon juice.
