Thursday’s Side Dish: Sweet Ricotta Cheese Snack

A divine low-carb dessert

The Mixed Stew crew stumbled across this sweet treat snack while working on slimming down. The nutty crunch, hits of sweet chocolate, and creamy ricotta cheese really do in a pinch to satisfy the hunger pangs of long work days. The portion is also just right without overdoing it. We get downright folksy with our portion recommendations: Combine a handful of walnuts (can substitute almonds), ½ cup ricotta cheese, a smaller handful of semisweet chocolate chips, and 1 teaspoon or packet of Splenda. Mix well and serve immediately.
