Wellthy Tastings July– Berry Patriotic Ricotta Desert Pizza

The 4^th of July is almost here, so we are thinking red, white, and blue. Today, we’ll be making a “berry” patriotic ricotta dessert pizza for you to enjoy this 4^th of July and/or bring along with you to your 4^th of July festivities this weekend. This recipe is not only delicious, but super fun to make! We’ve got some extra grains with our whole wheat and added protein from our ricotta and cream cheese. With the bright colors from our berries and the circle of the pizza, we can make fun firework and American flag designs. Let’s jump into it.

Here's what you’ll need:

• Whole wheat pita bread or naan
• ½ cup ricotta cheese
• ¼ cup low fat cream cheese
• 1 T honey
• ½ tsp vanilla
• Fresh berries
• Mint for garnish
• Toasted coconut

Directions:

1. Combine ricotta, cream cheese, honey, and vanilla in a bowl.
2. Spread cheese spread on pita and top with berries, mint, and coconut
3. Enjoy!

Here’s to the stars and stripes. We hope you have a safe and fun 4^th of July!
