As the pan is warming up, whisk the eggs in a medium-sized bowl. When the oil is shimmering, pour the eggs into the pan, and move them around with a spatula. Add the ricotta and break it up into small chunks as you continue moving the eggs around. Cook until the eggs are soft set and no longer shiny, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt. My favorite way to serve Ricotta Scrambled Eggs is spooned over slices of toasted sourdough bread and topped with finely shredded Parmesan cheese, minced fresh herbs like chives, basil, or dill, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. This is delicious served with fresh berries or other fruit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ricotta Scrambled Eggs For the creamiest, most decadent scrambled eggs you\u2019ve ever tasted, try adding ricotta cheese while the eggs are cooking.
