Ingredients
- 2 8 oz packages organic cheese ravioli (Artisola recommended)
- 2 cups chopped kale
- 2 cups herb roasted tomatoes
- For the Creamy Sauce:
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 1¼ cup organic heavy cream
- ½ cup organic vegetable stock
- 2 tbsp white cooking wine
- 1 –2 tbsp Tuscan "Marry Me" Blend
- 1 tbsp freshly-squeezed lemon juice
- ½ cup freshly-grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Cook the ravioli: Prepare ravioli according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Sauté the garlic: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Make the sauce base: Stir in the heavy cream, vegetable stock, white cooking wine, and Tuscan "Marry Me" Blend. Simmer for 3–4 minutes until slightly thickened.
- Add cheese and lemon: Stir in the lemon juice and Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
- Add vegetables: Toss in the kale and roasted tomatoes. Cook for a few minutes until the kale is slightly wilted.
- Combine with pasta: Add the cooked ravioli to the skillet and gently fold it into the sauce until well coated.
- Serve: Plate and serve warm. Garnish with extra Parmesan cheese if desired.
Notes
- For a vegan version, use plant-based ravioli, non-dairy cream, and vegan Parmesan.
- The “Marry Me” Blend typically includes sun-dried tomatoes, Italian herbs, garlic, and crushed red pepper. If you don’t have it, substitute with a mix of Italian seasoning, paprika, and a pinch of red chili flakes.
- You can use spinach instead of kale for a milder green.
