Looks so delicious. Wish I was there. You are doing so well with your home-grown produce. We could have supplied the tomatoes, as we have a dozen plants all producing really well at the moment. Amazing flavours.

Put the spinach in a large colander and pour over a kettle of boiling water to wilt it you may need to do this in batches. When cool enough to handle squeeze out the excess water. Roughly chop the spinach and mix in a large bowl with hundred grams Parmesan and ricotta. Thanks.
Regards,
