All these suggestions make me want to go out and buy more.

Recently made pancakes from a pint never used. Then froze them for future breakfasts.

I love ricotta as a topping for toast, to add to scrambled eggs, top pizza, or baked eggs (uovo in purgatorio)

I also like ricotta gnocchi (it’s used instead of potato so it’s very light).
