This torte was a disaster! The crust was soggy and the filling was runny. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra garlic and sun-dried tomatoes, and it was much better.

This was easy to make and so delicious! I used jarred pesto and sun-dried tomatoes, and it still turned out great.

I'm not a huge fan of pesto, but I loved this torte! The sun-dried tomatoes added a nice sweetness and the ricotta cheese made it really creamy. Will make again!
