“My belt holds my pants up, but the belt loops hold my belt up.
So which ones the real hero?” --- Mitch Hedberg
I try to clear out the fridge completely every time before I go shopping again. It makes it so we don't waste much, if any, food. So while my better half finished off some leftovers I decided to have some ravioli. Every now and then I'll get a bag of pre-made frozen ravioli for quick and easy dinners. Tonight I thought I'd change it up a bit with a few veggies. This is a recipe for one serving. So double up if you want enough for two or more.
Sara's Better For You Ravioli Salad
1 serving size of your favorite frozen beef ravioli (cooked per package directions)
2 Roma tomato slices (diced)
3 Shiitake mushrooms (sliced)
1 large handful of baby spinach (washed and chopped)
1/4 cup baby carrots
1/4 cup peas
4 Tbs of your favorite pasta sauce (I used a creamy basil pesto)
1: In a pot of boiling water cook ravioli, carrots, mushrooms and peas untill ravioli is cooked through. Drain and set aside. Heat up your sauce in the same pot until bubbly.
2: On your plate spread out the chopped spinach and diced tomato. Add the ravioli mix spread out on the spinach and top with your no more than 4 Tbs of sauce.
I'm not sure of the exact number, but I believe that the total calorie count for this meal is under 400. And it was very filling. Enjoy another healthy, tasty meal!
