Who would of thought mixing ricotta and yogurt, not me. Thanks for the idea! Did the recipe just little bit different; stevia and cinnamon. Husband said, "It taste like cannoli filling", and he is Italian. Now,I can have my cannoli filling w/o the guilt and my favorite granola. It is for breakfast.
