3 Tbs butter; or margarine 4 oz feta cheese; 1/2' cubes 1/8 tsp black pepper 1/4 cup lemon juice; 1 lemon 1 Tbs parsley; minced (optional) 1 cup ricotta cheese 1 pk spinach, frozen; well drained
This will taste very Greek to you. Be sure to drain the spinach well. Originally from: QUICK, THRIFTY COOKING Feta and Ricotta Cheese Fondue Melt the butter in a heavy 8-inch skillet or a 1 quart saucepan over low-heat. Add the feta and ricotta cheese, and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, and mashing the cheeses slightly, until they soften and begin to bubble - about 5 minutes. Stir in lemon juice, and garnish with the parsley if desired. Serve at once; as the fondue cools, it loses flavor. VARIATIONS: Substitute Fontina cheese for the Feta cheese or you can substitute cottage cheese for the ricotta. You can make both of these substitutions.
