These are just fried ravioli, great as an appetizer or a quick meal component. They got named by my 6 year old son though, so we call them toasty around here. Serve them with marinara sauce (either store bought or homemade) on the side.

I got cheese flavored ones. Dip them in sause and they taste like pizza. So Easy.

Ravioli is the pasta that started me on my pasta making journey and will always have a special place in my heart. These simple cheese ravioli are easy to “fancify” but are also the weeknight staple you can pull from the freezer after a long day and have ready in minutes. Cheesy, light, and filled almost to bursting, enjoy these little pasta pillows time and time again.

Starting 2021 i am adjusting some of my recipes to meal prep and freezer meals see my bio on why . This started as a fridge clean out meal that you will read in my notes and converted this into a prep meal and freezer meal . This is the first recipe iam posting to my new style of cooking, but not all recipes will be prep / freezer meals bc I love cooking just not all of the time . I wanted a more easily way to cook and stock my freezer. Remember iam a lazy cook lol 😂

Even with store bought ravioli this quick dish can be a luxurious first course or an amazing lunch

I had a family size bag of ravioli in the freezer that was forgotten for a minute. I forgot to thaw anything for dinner. Go me. Story of my freakin life. We needed a change from marinara. I whipped this together in the time it took the hubs to take the grandkids home, about 30 minutes. As my granddaughter says,”it was deeewishus”! This isn’t authentic by any stretch but it was really good. Also, there’s none left lol

This is definitely the lazy girls variation of lasagna. This is only 5 ingredients total If you're using jarred sauce. I usually try to make a homemade sauce in advance for this, but even doing that it's still a very easy meal to prepare. It is so quick to throw together for a delicious, kid-approved weeknight dinner.

Simple, quick, fun. A great variation on ravioli. Now pasta becomes a finger food! Great for any occasion,or even a weeknight at home.

Growing up, I loved when Moma would buy a large can of ravioli. I asked her why she didn’t make it from scratch cuz she made everything else she cooked. Her reply, “I don’t do pasta” 😳 she didn’t cook anything she didn’t like. She hated pasta of any kind!So, she bought premade stuff that my Daddy and I liked. Now, I found a shortcut to “homemade” ravioli.

My eyes lit up when I found this pasta machine in the store one day. Then I started thinking about making ravioli. I kept my eyes open for a ravioli cutter, but couldn’t find one. I found a “Ravioli Plate”. I want to stress that this is one of those items that you’ve got to spend the money on. I found that out after the fact. I was able to make reasonable looking ravioli, but I was left with a lot of extra filling. I ended up putting the leftover filling into the sauce. I feel like the ravioli cutter would be better because then you’re not bound by the size of the cavity in the plate. I was very upset that I couldn’t make larger, more packed ones. Nonetheless, I carried on. Live and learn. Fair warning: it’s kind of a pain in the behind to make this... but you’ll have the everlasting privilege of being able to say you made homemade ravioli.

#heirloomPasta is one of our favourite dishes, everyone loves it. So, I thought I'd make a simple ravioli with tomato and basil sauce instead of having spaghetti all the time, and everyone just smashed it!

My grandmother used to make a soup that is so similar but of course as the case with most Italian grandmothers she didn't have it written down. So with some experimentation I've come up with a soup which comes pretty close. Its such a comforting soup and its perfect on cold wintery days. I serve with fresh Italian bread.
