Roasted Red Pepper Ravioli

 Roasted Red Pepper Ravioli is an easy, cheesy ravioli baked in a quick and creamy roasted red pepper sauce. 

I’m not a spaghetti person. You will never see it on this blog because – I really quite loathe it. I don’t like the sauce, I don’t like the noodles, I don’t like it at all.

But I like fettuccine, I like linguini, penne, tortellini, macaroni… YUM. Ravioli though, is definitely one of my favorite forms of pasta. Pillows stuffed with creamy cheesy, spinachy, meaty goodness. Yes pleeeeease.

Now this sauce? It is spoon from the pan worthy. Meaning, half of it ends up straight inside my belly – no pasta involved – because it is so darn good. The roasted red pepper flavors, tomato, a little cream cheese, some Italian seasoning…

I luv it.

And it’s absolutely covered in melty gooey cheese.

I actually made this recipe for the first time last summer and fell head over heels for it but I hated the photographs – they didn’t do it justice – so I put it in my Re-do File and sort of forgot about it until last week. I made it again and I swear, by some miracle, it was even better than the first time I made it. This time I invited my parents over and my mother who is very picky became and instant fan.

And my father? Well he adored it. And he hates cheese. And Italian food. <—– the audacity! And still, loved my roasted red pepper ravioli. That my friends, is a miracle. A small, foodie miracle but a miracle nonetheless.
