I had half a lb. heading for its last legs, it seemed - used it in lieu of yogurt in a batch of waffles. Tastes fine. I hate to waste food.

Speaking of frugal, I used my FREE foodsaver technique to freeze some of the waffles. I suck the air out of a nearly closed ziplock bag with a plastic straw. It's pretty airfree and no big contraption to haul out. I know a few people who bought those machines, but never bother to get em out. The extra bags can't be free either.

Can swirl it into brownies too.

Or mix it with cooked spinach or beet, along with cheese nutmeg and eggs, to
make stuffing for cannelloni, ravioli, manicotti...

I had already used a good amount of it for calzones. I usually buy the half pound, but my market is only stocking the pound now. The waffles were on the soft side, but that's fine. Can't even detect a cheese flavor.

Ricotta isn't cheesy in flavor.
