A simple recipe to use up those delicious, in-season strawberries. The zesty ricotta and sweet strawberry jam pair so well together—savory and sweet! This works well of course for breakfast or brunch, but would make a great snack or even an appetizer idea, by serving it in smaller bites. Hard to resist!
