Not that I remember. I'm about 99% sure it isn't legal on Induction. Sorry!

Indeed, ricotta is not allowed. It is a 'fresh' cheese. However, you can use cream cheese instead. Just be careful with the amount of sodium... cream cheese is usually pretty salty.

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource. Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"

You can add it however at the dairy rung, which is OWL rung 2. It does make a fabulous desert! it's great also with unsweetened cocoa powder and splenda.

You know I was wondering what "fresh cheese" was. Dumb question, but why is is called a fresh cheese? I'll be able to have that in two weeks! Yes, I can't wait to make this ricotta cheesecake with it!
