I always like just s touch of sweetness on my ricotta toast. Today, I put fig preserves over the strawberries. It added just enough sweetness and flavor.
Sprouts are a new addition for me. They add texture and nutrients, and, of course, they’re visually appealing.

Ricotta cheese has a creamy, soft texture and mild flavor therefore, it’s good in both sweet and savory dishes. It can be made from cow, goat, or sheep milk whey. *You can get full-fat ricotta as well as low-fat and fat-free ricotta. Of course the nutrition profile of low-fat and fat-free ricotta will vary compared to full-fat ricotta. These are still rich in protein, calcium, selenium, and phosphorus.
