Layered Pasta Ricotta Pie image

This is such a beautiful dinner! I especially like making it around the holidays cuz the layers are basically red, and green. But it's great any time! A good way to sneak in some vegies for the kids.

This pie was a disaster! The crust was soggy and the filling was bland. I definitely won't be making this again.

I'm not a fan of ricotta cheese, so I wasn't sure if I would like this pie. But I was pleasantly surprised! The flavors were great and the texture was perfect.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I had some trouble getting the pie to set properly. I think I might have overcooked it a bit.

The ricotta filling was a little bland for my taste. I would have liked it better if there had been more herbs or spices.

I made this pie for my vegetarian friends and they loved it. It's a great dish for a potluck or party.

This recipe was a bit more time-consuming than I expected, but it was worth it. The pie was a showstopper at my dinner party.

I'm not a huge fan of ricotta cheese, but I really enjoyed this pie. The flavors were well-balanced and the crust was flaky and golden brown.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add a little more garlic next time.
