For a vegetarian option, substitute the Italian sausage with a plant-based alternative or a mix of sautéed vegetables like mushrooms, zucchini, and spinach.
To save time, you can use pre-cooked Italian sausage.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as provolone or fontina, for a richer flavor.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sausage mixture for a little heat.

    So easy to make and the leftovers are delicious. I added some spinach to the ricotta mixture for extra nutrients.
