1 Large Pot
1 Large Skillet
Instructions
Prepare the Ravioli:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Prepare the ravioli according to the package instructions, or just until al dente. Reserve a 1/4 cup of pasta water and set it to the side for later use and then carefully drain the pasta.
Make the Sauce:
Meanwhile, heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Once the butter has melted, stir in the garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, and dried Italian herb seasoning. Sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add in the half and half, dijon mustard, parmesan cheese and stir until the cheese has melted (keep in mind, the more cheese that you use, the thicker your sauce will be). Simmer over low heat for 2 to 3 minutes to let the flavors meld. Taste the sauce and season with salt and pepper.
Combine the Ingredients:
Lightly stir in the ravioli and spinach. Continue to simmer until the ravioli is warmed through, the sauce has thickened a bit (adding in all or some of the reserved pasta water, if the sauce is too thick), and the spinach has wilted, about 3 to 8 minutes. Serve the ravioli into your favorite dish and shower with more parmesan cheese and fresh basil, if desired. Enjoy!
