## Lemony Ricotta Alfredo with Pistachio Gremolata

![](https://opal-trout.pikapod.net/content/images/2026/10/lemony-ricotta-alfredo-with-pistachio-gremolata-jpeg-2.jpg)

- 4 cloves minced garlic
- 1/4 cup chopped (toasted pistachios)
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 lemon (juice + zest)
- 1 lb pasta of choice
- 1 17 oz jar Bertolli d’Italia Alfredo sauce
- 16 oz whole milk ricotta
1. **Make the gremolata**. To a small bowl, add the lemon zest, minced garlic, and chopped pistachios and parsley and mix to combine.
2. **Cook the pasta**. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and liberally salt. Cook the pasta till al dente, then reserve some starchy pasta water and drain.
3. **While the pasta cooks, make the sauce**. To a large saute pan, add the alfredo sauce and bring to a simmer, then whisk in the ricotta and lemon juice. Season with salt to taste.
4. **Finish and serve**. Add the al dente pasta to the sauce with a splash of pasta water and toss to coat. Serve immediately with a healthy sprinkling of pistachio gremolata and enjoy!
- For extra protein, serve with chicken or shrimp, or blend ½ cup of unflavored, unsweetened collagen peptides into the alfredo before adding to the pot!
