It is a simple dish that kids love. You can try to make it fancy, but it is what it is. Some people add spinach to the Ricotta sauce. Some add lemon rink and lemon slices for a more sophisticated dish for adults. I add about 1 cup of broccoli florets and the very top cut flowers of the florets to create a fresh green look and taste to the dish. I stir fry the broccoli in olive oil and with 1 tbs of grated garlic (about three cloves) before adding the Ricotta cheese to the sauce pan. Some people add spinach and garlic instead. Either way, it taste good, or even just plain.
