Ingredients

8 ounces ricotta cheese dairy or vegan
4 olives sliced
2 teaspoons capers
1 tablespoon chopped pistachios
1 lemon to zest
1 teaspoon honey
1 tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil
Crackers of choice I recommend gluten free Simple Mills crackers

Instructions

Transfer 8 ounces ricotta cheese to a bowl and mix so it becomes creamy and spreadable.
Spread ricotta onto a medium plate (to serve in).
Sprinkle with 4 olives (sliced), 2 teaspoons capers and 1 tablespoon chopped pistachios.
Zest the 1 lemon right on top of the dip.
Drizzle with 1 teaspoon honey and 1 tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil.
Serve with Crackers of choice and enjoy!

Notes

I love using KiteHill dairy free Ricotta, but any dairy ricotta will be perfect too!
This recipe is super quick, so assemble right before serving.
You can swap lemon zest for lime zest.
If you don’t have capers, use something that is salty/briney, such as pepperoncini
