Recipe Notes
This is such an easy dish and not to mention, delicious! If you want to add more punch, add a bit of garlic with the tomatoes or add red pepper flakes at the end. I made this last night... We loved it however, it wasn't as hot as I wanted because I didn't heat up the cherry tomatoes which cooled down the pasta, as well as the cold ricotta! But it was still delicious.
