Ricotta Garlic Roasted Potatoes

Ricotta Garlic Roasted Potatoes

Few times a week I try to make meatless dishes for our family dinner......even when we are camping.

Both of my boys are meat lovers, but slowly they got used to mom's meatless nights and actually look forward to it.

Having a meatless dinner few times a week is not only good for their health , but it keeps my food budget in check.
I myself don't need to eat much meat......... I do like it, but I take good meatless comfort food over hunk of meat anytime.

Last week I had a container of Ricotta that needed to be used.....soon. I wasn't sure what to use it for. I wanted to do something different.

I decided to make roasted potatoes with Ricotta and I named it Ricotta Garlic Roasted Potatoes.

My kids went crazy over it.
