I'm not a big fan of asparagus, but I loved this recipe! The ricotta and lemon really mellowed out the flavor of the asparagus.

This dish is so easy to make, but it looks and tastes like something you'd get in a restaurant. I'm definitely making it again soon.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I omitted the pine nuts from the recipe. It still turned out great! I think I'll add some chopped walnuts next time for a little extra crunch.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover asparagus. I had a few spears left over from another recipe and they worked perfectly in this dish.

I'm not a fan of ricotta cheese, so I substituted it with cottage cheese. It turned out great! The cottage cheese gave the sauce a slightly tangy flavor that I really liked.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit with my family. The kids love the creamy sauce and the adults love the bright and flavorful asparagus.

I'm not a vegetarian, but I really enjoyed this meatless pasta dish. The ricotta and asparagus were so flavorful that I didn't miss the meat at all.

This is one of my favorite pasta dishes! I love the combination of creamy ricotta, bright lemon, and roasted asparagus. It's a perfect meal for a weeknight dinner.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my asparagus was still tough. I think I'll try roasting it for a few minutes longer next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sauce turned out grainy. I think I may have added the ricotta too quickly.

This dish was easy to make and didn't require any special ingredients. I was able to find everything I needed at my local grocery store.

I've never been a huge fan of asparagus, but this recipe changed my mind. The roasted asparagus had a slightly sweet and nutty flavor that paired perfectly with the ricotta and lemon.

This pasta dish was an absolute delight! The creamy ricotta, asparagus, and lemon zest came together perfectly, creating a light and flavorful sauce that coated the penne beautifully.
