The pennoni with ricotta and walnuts is one of those dishes I prepare when I want something simple yet full of flavor.
I got the ricotta fresh at PAM during the weekly grocery shopping, while I found the walnuts on sale at Aldi and couldn’t resist them!
The beauty of this recipe is that it takes very little time to make, yet it almost seems like a restaurant dish: creamy, perfectly crunchy, and fragrant thanks to the Grana Padano. If you want a change, you can also replace the walnuts with almonds for a milder touch.

Storage
The pennoni with ricotta and walnuts is best when freshly made, with the pasta warm and creamy.
If there are leftovers, store them in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 1 day.
When reheating, I recommend adding a splash of milk or a drizzle of oil in the pan to restore the sauce’s creaminess. BYE!
