Steps:
- Add the Ritz crackers to a food processor and process until they are crumbled. Add the cracker crumbs to a flat dish and set aside while you prepare the tomatoes.
- Halve the tomatoes and using a spoon, remove the seeds and most of the flesh.
- Sprinkle the inside of the tomatoes with a little salt and lay them upside down on a paper towel to get rid of any excess water.
- Add the ricotta cheese to a medium-sized bowl. Then add the Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning.
- Spoon a little of the ricotta cheese mixture into each tomato half.
- Dip each tomato half into the crushed cracker crumbs.
- Place the tomato halves in a baking dish that's been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
- Drizzle the olive oil on top of the tomatoes.
- Bake in a preheated 400 degree oven for about 20 to 25 minutes or until the cheese is heated through and slightly bubbling.

HEIRLOOM TOMATOES WITH HERBED RICOTTA
Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta, scallions, dill, chives, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and set aside for up to 30 minutes.
- With a small serrated knife, cut the larger tomatoes in wedges through the stem and the smaller tomatoes in half through the stem. Place them in a medium bowl with the garlic, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and set aside.
- When ready to serve, add the basil to the tomatoes and combine. Pile the ricotta in a large (12-inch) round shallow bowl or oval platter. Using a slotted spoon, place the tomatoes around the ricotta, discarding any liquid. Drizzle the tomatoes and ricotta with olive oil, sprinkle with the reserved basil and fleur de sel, and serve at room temperature.
- Set a fine-mesh sieve over a deep bowl. Dampen 2 pieces of cheesecloth with water and line the sieve with a double layer of the cheesecloth.
- Pour the milk and cream into a medium stainless-steel or enameled pot, such as Le Creuset, and stir in the salt. Bring to a full rolling boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat and pour in the vinegar. Allow the mixture to stand for one minute, until it curdles. It will separate into thick parts (the curds) and milky parts (the whey).
- Pour the mixture into the cheesecloth-lined sieve and allow it to drain into the bowl at room temperature for 20 minutes (for soft ricotta) to 25 minutes (for firmer ricotta), occasionally discarding the liquid that collects in the bowl. Transfer the ricotta to a bowl, discarding the cheesecloth and any remaining liquid. Use immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. The ricotta will keep, refrigerated, for 4 to 5 days.

THREE CHEESE STUFFED JUMBO PASTA SHELLS
These are a family favorite! I use my Spicy? Sweet? Marinara sauce recipe #125116 for this recipe. This makes a full box of pasta shells, which is a lot, but this recipe is easily cut in half.

STUFFED TOMATOES WITH GRITS AND RICOTTA
This recipe makes a great appetizer. I spent a lot of time experimenting with ingredients and finally concluded that this recipe you now see listed turned out to be the best. The grits give a unique texture to the exotic flavors of the Parmesan and Asiago cheeses.
