  • 15 oz ricotta cheese
  • ½-1 tsp kosher salt
  • ½ large lemon juiced

  • Red pepper flakes for topping

Instructions

  • In a food processor add ricotta cheese, salt, lemon juice, olive oil, lemon zest, and hot honey. Blend together until the dip is very smooth. If needed, scrape the sides down half way through to ensure all the cheese has blended.
