Ravioli Sauce

From the recipe collection of Tara Ippolito

This ravioli sauce has a permanent spot on my families dinner menu.

We eat this pasta about once a month at my house because my family and kids especially just love it. I do too!

It's incredibly easy to make and absolutely delicious. I can put this together in about 30 minutes with very little effort. The best part is that I usually already have all of these ingredients on hand at all times.

Easy to make recipes that include pantry staples like this one are a god send for me on busy weekdays. One less trip to the grocery store is just fine by me!

I like to serve this with a nice big side of Homemade Garlic Bread and garden salad. Thats my idea of the perfect meal.

This sauce goes together so perfectly with the ravioli. It also coats every one very nicely so you'll get some of this delicious sauce in every bite.

It's also great because this sauce can be served with any flavor ravioli that you prefer. My family just happens be big cheese stuffed ravioli fans around here but any kind will do.

I hope you give this recipe a try. If you do, I know you'll love it just as much as my family and I do.

Theres something about this sauce that just goes perfectly with the ravioli. It clings to it nicely, also, so each one is coated in all of this deliciousness.

Fast. Simple. Delicious.

Ravioli Sauce Variations

I like this sauce recipe made just the way it is, but here are some ways to change it up if you'd like to.

• Ravioli- Any kind/flavor of ravioli would go wonderfully with this sauce.
• Diced Tomatoes- A traditional can of Italian Diced Tomatoes is what I typically use but a can of Rotel can be used here, also.
• Heat- To add some spice to this sauce, add some hot pepper flakes when sautéing the onion and garlic.
