Meatless Mondays, 30-Minute Meals, Cooking for Two…this recipe for ravioli with a creamy mushroom sauce ticks ALL the boxes and more.
I really wanted to make homemade ravioli but time and energy dictated otherwise. So, off to the store I went for a refrigerated package of Mushroom Ravioli. You could also use ravioli with a ricotta filling or even the 3 cheese type. Any of them would be delicious.
This is one of the few meals my “meat and potatoes” husband really loves! Serve with crusty bread and a salad and you have a complete, delicious dinner that is guest worthy as well.
Prepare the ravioli according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and the chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Saute for 2-3 minutes just until the mushrooms begin to soften.
Add the spinach, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Cook until the spinach wilts slightly, stirring frequently.
Pour in 1 cup of heavy cream, stir well, and bring to a simmer.
Add the cooked and drained ravioli, toss, and heat thoroughly. Check your seasonings and add salt and pepper if needed.

I had a bag of frozen ravioli in the freezer and some heavy cream and sliced mushrooms I needed to use up ASAP so I did a quick Pinterest search and found your recipe. It was an awesome find! Everything came together quickly and my husband was very impressed with the result. Thank you for a quick, affordable, and tasty recipe. The sun-dried tomatoes made ALL the difference. 🙂

Made this recipe a few days ago and it was fantastic, the picky eaters in my home that don’t like pasta cream sauces absolutely loved this recipe. Thank you for posting this
