[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think its less about the recipe and more about the techniques. You need to avoid it getting too watery. If you like mushrooms or zucchini in it then make sure to roast or sauce these before adding to remove the water. If you don't use oven bake noodle, make sure they are well drained and dry so you don't add a bunch of water to the dish.

The best way to add flavor is to use a higher quantity of high quality parmesan cheese mixed into the ricotta. I add basil paste, minced garlic, salt and pepper to the ricotta mixture to pump up the flavor. You can also mix in some tomato paste into the marinara or other tomato based sauce to thicken it and add more flavor.

Make sure to let it rest so the cheese, sauce and noodles will solidify more. [/quote]

I mix parm and mozz into the ricotta, but also add spinach (thawed but carefully squeezed to get all the water out) and browned ground turkey (I mix onion and garlic into it).  Plus quality marinara sauce.  Voila.  meat, dairy, veggies - all in one dish.  :)
