I definitely need to be friends with cheesepeople. Just another reason to move back to Brooklyn?

I’m not sure what’s happening here, but I bet it’s awesome. And gross. But mostly awesome?

I’m pretty sure I could live on this. Or at least die trying since I’m not supposed to eat wheat.

This week, I received my first bags of produce from the CSA I recently joined. I’m a lazy cook, but I’m trying to get better, so I thought a delivery of random, fresh produce every other week would stir up some culinary creativity. 

To celebrate my commitment to health and cooking, I decide to make some cheese. Naturally. I mean, I deserved some reward for helping local farmers make their bills. The produce can wait. Cheese is magic. Literally. I made this:

In to this!

 

Fresh, warm, delicious ricotta! In 15 minutes flat. This could be dangerous. 

*For the record, I also made kiwi pomegranate salsa, roasted butternut squash (with honey goat cheese of the gods), purple potato salad with radishes and chives and a broccoli, apple, raisin, almond salad-type dish. Even more of an excuse to eat warm ricotta straight from the strainer. Success!!
