I tagged this to use up some ricotta cheese that I had in the fridge and I'm glad I did - very good and so easy-to-make - a perfect no-meat meal. Although I followed as directed just skipping the chives, I think it is a very adaptable recipe using what ever vegetables are on hand. Thanks for sharing this keeper!

I agree, different but a very good salad that we enjoyed for lunch today. Made recipe right down the line with no adjustments, all in all a nice pasta dish. Made for 1-2-3 hits.

This is different, but good. I made it according to the recipe, except that I had to use brown mustard with no seeds. It's really colorful and very pretty on the plate! Made for Photo Tag.
