I'm all about quick, easy and delicious these days in the kitchen...especially after a huge food holiday like Easter. Here is a great spring meal. It is one of our favorite go to meals on a Friday night.
Saute leeks and onions until soft in olive oil...add zucchini saute until it begins to soften...then add peas, salt and pepper
Add Ricotta cheese and mix.
Mix in some lemon zest..
Ever since I was a little girl Maggio is my favorite choice for ricotta cheese. I could eat it by the spoonful.
Top with a grating of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese...
Measurements ...I really didnt use any..I just started pulling whatever out of the fridge... Its how I roll!! One tip definitely use more veggies than pasta. If it helps I used 2 leeks 2 zucchini 1 sweet onion 1 half a bag of peas 7 oz of cheese 1 tsp lemon zest 1 pound of small pasta used leftover boxes of ditalini and wagon wheels.
