[...] time. I wanted to use ricotta cheese, but didn’t have any (nor do I ever except the time I made crepes, which was NOT a success). So I used what I had on hand. A little light cream cheese, [...]

Any food would look good if you are on a fast (feast) I’m sure!

Liz, it’s hard to compare because you have the low fat, light, whole, regular, etc. But I think in general ricotta has more fat, which would make me prefer cottage cheese. But you are right, you can substitute either in recipes. I guess Emily’s going to have a crepe fete for us. See you there!

Amy- I will host a Crepe Fete! I bought a crepe maker 5 years ago for that very purpose. Of course, it’s still in its nice, pretty box. I will tell you though, my fave crepe topping is Nutella. You can bring Grape Nuts and raspberries to combat my evil ways. (And of course, ricotta) And I know there’s a whole wheat recipe included in the box so we can fake healthy, if you’d like.

A group of my college friends and I used to do Crepe parties til they all moved away. It is really fun when you get all the different toppings! YUM! Amy, I know that you can substitute cottage cheese for ricotta in recipes, do you think one is better for you than the other or are they about equal?

YUM! Dessert for dinners sounds fabulous! We have a friend who throws a “Crepe Fete” every year, (pronounced Crep Fet) and it was a Crepe party with all the toppings. Of course there was ice cream and pudding, whipped cream and berries- it really WAS dessert. But I could probably convince them to add some ricotta. And ooh yum, I’m gonna throw me a Ricotta Frittata party cuz that looks GOOD!

BTW, ketchup boy is hilarious! When he starts to chew it gets bad. Ha!
