Melissa's Notes - Upon sitting, this spread can get a bit watery and
requires remixing. Best if served just after preparation. I am not sure how
it would hold up for the original recipe's indication of a molded
spread.
List of Ingredients
1/2 cup Ricotta cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
OR
1 teaspoon dried basil leaves
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon sour cream
6 ounces white tuna in water -- drained, canned
Recipe
Mix all ingredients in small bowl. Serve immediately or chill for a short
time and serve.
Alternately, place all ingredients in blender or food processor. Cover and
blend on medium speed until smooth. Line 2-cup metal bowl or mold with
plastic wrap. Place mixture in bowl. Cover and refrigerate about 2 hours or
until set. Carefully unmold onto serving plate.
