• 1 cup shelled roasted pistachios
• 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
• 1 package (5 ounces) fresh baby spinach
• 1 cup whole-milk ricotta cheese
• 2 tablespoons honey
• Coarsely ground pepper

1. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add apples and ginger; cook and stir until apples soften and begin to caramelize, 3-5 minutes. Stir in pistachios and Dijon mustard. Reduce heat; simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2. Pour two-thirds of apple mixture over spinach. Add spoonfuls of ricotta cheese; top with remaining apple mixture. Drizzle with honey. Add fresh pepper to taste.
