Walnuts and Gorgonzola cheese were a winning combination in the popular bistro salads of the nineties, and they work brilliantly in this hearty pasta dish.

Ingredients

Uncooked pasta

170 gm, (500 ml, 2 cups)

Part-skim ricotta cheese

½ cup(s)

Reduced-sodium chicken broth

¼ cup(s)

Lemon zest

1 tbsp(s), grated

Chopped walnuts

½ tbsp(s)

Gorgonzola cheese

3 oz, (60 ml [¼ cup])

Fresh parsley

2 tbsp(s), flat-leaf, chopped

Instructions

  1. Cook the rotelle according to package directions. Drain and place in a warmed serving bowl.
  2. Meanwhile, combine the ricotta, broth and lemon zest in a medium bowl; mix until smooth. Spoon over the rotelle, then add the walnuts, Gorgonzola cheese and parsley; toss to coat. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Notes

To make this dish ahead of time, just cover and refrigerate for up to a day. However, it doesn’t reheat well; instead, take it out of the refrigerator about 30 minutes before serving time and enjoy it at room temperature. Do not freeze.
