How people cook with it
These ravioli are a quick and flavorful meal solution for busy weeknights. They pair well with a variety of simple sauces.
- Tossed with butter and herbs

To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the frozen ravioli, ensuring they do not stick together. Stir gently to prevent them from adhering to the bottom of the pot. Cook for the time indicated on the package, typically a few minutes, until the ravioli float to the surface and are tender. Drain them well. You can then toss them with your favorite sauce, such as a simple garlic butter, a light tomato sauce, or a creamy Alfredo, and serve immediately.
How it differs from similar foods
