- 1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream

Toast:

- Roast the strawberries: Toss the strawberries with honey and balsamic vinegar, then spread them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast for 20–25 minutes until soft and slightly caramelized.
- Prepare the whipped ricotta: While the strawberries are roasting, combine the ricotta, heavy cream, lemon zest, and salt in a food processor. Blend until smooth and fluffy, about 1–2 minutes.
