low-carb-lemon-ricotta-pie

This is a low-carb, lower-calorie version of a lemon ricotta Italian Easter pie. It is also sometimes called a ricotta cheesecake. This is a crustless "pie" but is very similar in flavor and texture (minus the crust) to traditional versions. The ricotta cheese in this recipe adds protein and a source of calcium, making it a bone-building ingredient that helps you get your three recommended servings of dairy.

Ingredients

3 eggs
1 pound whole milk ricotta cheese (a 15 ounce container works fine)
1 Juice and grated zest of medium lemon
