Creamy Ravioli with Peas and Salami
Sometimes I'm just a busy mom with not a lot of time in the kitchen.....this is sad
but true. I love to cook at home. I enjoy it much more than going out. But, some nights
dinner needs to be simple and easy. This is one of those recipes. You can also
make a lot of adjustments to fit to your liking....I love this dish. The salami
gives a little extra depth. Dinner doesn't have to be complicated to be delicious.
Creamy Ravioli with Peas and Salami
1 20oz package of four cheese ravioli
1jar of alfredo sauce
1 can diced tomatoes, with garlic, basil and oregano
1/2 package frozen baby peas
6 slices of salami, cut into chunks.
1) In a pot boil salted water...add ravioli cook according to package.
2) Add peas to the boiling pasta and cook for 2 minutes.
3) Drain and put back in pot.
4) Add alfredo and tomatoes and heat until hot. Enjoy.
Note, you can add parsley and parm cheese.
Yum looks so good!

ReplyDeletePlease come live in the same city as me so I can eat your leftovers and we can drink mojitos. This looks delightful!
ReplyDeleteQuick and tasty on a weeknight is the way to go. I have some butternut squash ravioli in the freezer waiting for their moment to shine.
ReplyDeleteOhh this sounds so amazing, I love everything about this dish! Just gorgeous! :)
ReplyDeleteGoodness gracious, this sounds amazing. And so easy. Going on my Wednesday Night Pasta rotation for next week (my easy night) :)

Yes, simple and easy is definitely the way to go when you get home late from work and you don't feel like cooking. Ordering takeout not only gets expensive but it's also so unhealthy for you.
ReplyDeleteI love this recipe, and I'm sure it will come in handy during my weeknights!
Everyone needs a few quick dinner recipes to put together on busy days. This does look so delicious and the peas make it so springy and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI love this easy dinner! Such a nice way to dress up ravioli. I'll admit it, sometimes I don't want to prepare a giant meal when I come home from work, and this sounds like the perfect alternative :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a super yummy way to prepare ravioli! Love this, Val. You always come up with the best flavor combinations!
ReplyDeleteMmmmmmm.... this looks soooo comforting and wonderful. It's kind of a dreary day and I may just have to make this tonight.
ReplyDeleteSimple yet gorgeous and delicious meals are great. My kids went through a salami phase where they could not get enough. I went to Costco and bought an enormous amount the exact day they decided they were over salami. This is the perfect way to use up my salami and reintroduce my fickle kids to an old love.
ReplyDeleteI love everything you conjure up. You give me ideas I never would have come up with on my own, thank you! =) Looks DIVINE!! =)
ReplyDeleteWow it looks delicious. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a perfect weeknight (or in-a-hurry) dinner, which means it is right up my alley! Not to mention this looks WAY more appetizing than 95% of the food I can eat out here in our new little town :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks so delicious! Salami in our household usually wanders onto some fresh baguette and is then gobbled up, but I need to save some and try out this recipe
ReplyDeleteI've been scrolling through your blog in awe at your gorgeous photographs...I love this one, but they are all just beautiful! And all of the food looks absolutely scrumptious! Makes me want to cook everything here! ♥
