Serves: 7 servings – 1 serve = 2 tbsp
Ingredients
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • ½ cup ricotta cheese
  • Handful fresh mint
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • Crack of salt and pepper
Instructions
  1. Add peas to boiling water for about 30 seconds so that they are just beginning to soften.
  2. Remove peas from stove and drain. Run cold water over the peas to cool quickly.
  3. Add peas, olive oil, ricotta, mint, lemon juice, salt and pepper to blender.
  4. Blend until smooth.
Notes
If you would like to make this more of dressing than a dip add more olive oil and lemon juice. This dressing works particularly well on roasted brinjal with toasted almonds. You could also use this a great spread on crackers and breads.
