    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/26/2013   Loved this! It's a definite keeper! I made it using Trader Joe's Pesto. I bought nonfat Ricotta and luckily tasted it before using, yuk. I think Ricotta is one of those things that needs some fat. Instead I used French Sheep's milk feta and drizzled with meyer lemon olive oil.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/25/2013   Very good! Will make again. Love that only one pot is required. Had marscapone on hand so I subbed that for the ricotta. A bit sweet and rich but still great. Will use ricotta next time. Remember to season well before serving since pesto recipe was sans salt and pepper.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/25/2013   this was REALLY tasty. was skeptical but turned out great! I do not like parsley so I made my own traditional basil pesto. served with a trio-co lore salad (radicchio, romaine and arugula) with red wine vinaigrette. thanks sarah! love your videos and especially like the Sunday pre prep suggestions. keep up the great work!
