Servings: persons

1 lb bow tie pasta
3/4 - 1 cup ricotta cheese (no low fat)
3/4 cup walnuts (chopped fine)
2 teaspoons minced garlic
4 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped fine)
1 fennel bulb, thin sliced (roasted)
olive oil (1 tablespoon or so)
salt
pepper
Garnish
parsley
walnuts

1
Fennel -- Heat the oven to 400. On a small baking sheet, line with either foil or parchment and add the fennel and drizzle with some olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast for 15 minutes until it starts to brown and it begins to soften. Not too soft - you still want it slightly crisp. Remove and keep warm.
2
Sauce -- Mix the walnuts, parsley, ricotta, garlic, salt and pepper to taste.
3
Pasta -- Cook according to directions. Drain and set to the side, but keep warm. Reserve a little of the pasta water to thin out the sauce just a bit.
4
Combine -- In a large bowl, add the ricotta sauce and the fennel to the pasta and mix well. If you would like the sauce a bit thinner, just add a little of the pasta water. Garnish with some fresh parsley, walnuts and even fresh grated parmesan if you want. ENJOY!
