Lemon Ricotta Bowls

Follow a rich meal with this unexpected choice, where ricotta—which usually only shows up on the dessert menu in cheesecake—gets the spotlight. Though it only takes a minute to stir 2 cups of cheese with 1 teaspoon each of lemon zest and juice, 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla, and sugar to taste, it's best if you make it before dinner so the cheese can absorb the bright flavors.
