Ricotta Balls

Today I really wanted to make Brandon something different as I’m sure his getting bored of the foods I’ve been feeding him lately. So I experimented a bit and made him some Ricotta Balls.

Ingredients:

200g Fresh Ricotta

1 Tbsp dried oregano

Tin Diced Tomatoes

1 Tbsp tomato paste

1 crushed garlic

*Note: The reason I use these tomatoes is because they are just tomatoes nothing added

Method:

1.       Pre-heat oven 160 degrees

2.       Line baking tray with baking paper

3.       Mix ricotta and oregano together

4.       Once well combined roll into balls, I made mine fairly small but you can make them as big or as small as you desire.

5.       Put them in the oven for 20 minutes or until heated through.

6.       Meanwhile in a small saucepan combine the tinned tomato, tomato paste and garlic and heat.

7.       Once the Ricotta balls are heated remove from the oven and serve topped with sauce as a side dish.

He really enjoyed them. To round out his dinner I served them with some chicken for extra protein. As well as some steamed vegetables that I chopped up.

Enjoy!
