Here is how you make Low Carb Lemon Cheesecake:

Grind pecans in food processor until they're crumby - add melted butter and pulse 6-8 times until the pecans start to hold together. Press into 8x8 baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Mix Gelatin with 1 cup boiling water. Stir in cream cheese, ricotta, and lemon juice until smooth. Pour mixture on top of pecan crust in baking dish. Place in the refrigerator. Takes at least 1 hour to set, but the longer you wait, the more set it will be. If you want to cut down the calories, you can eliminate the pecan crust. You can also eliminate the ricotta. I added it per a reviewer's suggestion to make it more cheesecake-like. Serving Size: Makes roughly 9 2.5"x 2.5" piecesNumber of Servings: 9Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user JBLOOME521.
