Ricotta

How much of the ricotta desserts can you have? I could only find part-skim ricotta, is that considered low fat? 1/4 cup of it has 5 grams of fat in it. Isn't that too much?

I usually have a half cup at a time. On this plan we do NOT worry about fat as long as it is not trans-fat or saturated fat. Your body needs 20 grams of fat MINIMUM in order to utilize the nutrients in foods. Relax and enjoy!

And don't forget that the ricotta and cottage cheese have protein, too. So it's a good fat.

Weightylady, sometimes I'll have two servings if I'm having a particularly rough day. ;)
