I sliced up an avocado to put on top of servings - that and a lil more chopped cilantro. Yummy yummy yummy in my tummy! I was surprised.. I’ll be honest, I was a skeptic – I didn’t think salsa and ricotta would go together but it is so good! Also I didn’t do the 13x9x2 – I did two 8x8’s and froze one Enjoy! ???
