Comfy Cuisine: Ricotta and Roasted Pepper Frittata

Ricotta and Roasted Pepper Frittata

Frittatas like this one are a popular main-course in the southern Italian region of Calabria. In America, ricotta is usually made from cow's milk. I have never had the fresh ricotta of Italy which is made from sheep's milk. I have made fresh ricotta and it's super simple to make! Homemade Ricotta.

Season with more black pepper, if you like.

This would be delicious with sliced Italian Sausage!

Enjoy!

Patti this looks like a work of art! And very delicious! I don't think I have ever tasted sheep's milk ricotta, but I will be on the lookout for it. xo,

I know this is really good. My grandmother used to make a frittata with julienned bell peppers poured over it. One of my all-time favorite meals. This combines the two dishes. Delicious. :-)
