Yep you guessed it – another roll recipe. This one is probably the easiest of all. Nothing to cook, just slice, sliver, squeeze and roll. Don’t even need a toothpick to hold these guys together. Great alternative to a salad or just good for a quick snack. I feel like I always buy ricotta for lasagna or cheesecake but then have some left over. Not enough for another lasagna but too much to just throw the whole container away. And that’s how I came across this recipe. So, if you have that same left over ricotta problem try this recipe.
