My dad was nice enough to pick up almost 10 lbs of freshly made cheese from the
Gioia factory in South El Monte, east of downtown LA. All this delicious cheese: burrata, ricotta and mozzarella for only $24! It's much cheaper at the factory; the burrata was only $6.99 for a pound, as compared to $12.00 the
last time I bought it. Now what to do with all this cheese... We used some ricotta and mozzarella for pizza night on Friday night and a bunch of ricotta and mozzarella for the two pans of lasagna for wine club last night. We actually finished all the of the fresh mozzarella, just have a little burrata left that we'll use on heirloom tomatoes and some ricotta. Any suggestions for the ricotta?

| Lasagna in progress; I like using lots of colorful vegetables, including orange and yellow peppers, onions, and carrots. I added kale, basil and parsley later |
