Raviolis anyone?

Next time you go to your local grocery store you may see packaged raviolis, pick up a bag and follow my easy recipe for a delicious lunch or dinner. It may seem easy to purchase a bag of these and simply add in your favorite sauce… right?? Well don’t. I always think about how can I change this dish or personalize it. That can be achieved by basically adding in your favorite veggies, some more garlic or fresh herbs.

Never settle is what I’m saying ;)

I've made this recipe with the mini cheese raviolis from Trader Joes & with the Frozen Spinach & Cheese Raviolis from Costco.. and both made a yummy dish.
