  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Pasta

  • 8 oz ravioli (cheese or pesto ravioli)

Sautéed Vegetables and Seasonings

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 cup artichoke hearts, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons capers, drained
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (plus more if desired)
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded

Instructions

  1. Cook the ravioli: Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the ravioli according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. Sauté vegetables and seasonings: Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, chopped artichoke hearts, minced garlic, drained capers, and Italian seasoning. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 2 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened.
  3. Wilt the spinach: Add the fresh spinach to the skillet with the sautéed mixture. Continue cooking and stirring until the spinach is fully wilted and incorporated, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Combine ravioli with sautéed mixture: Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the cooked ravioli and 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Stir gently to combine all ingredients and warm the ravioli through. Taste and adjust seasoning by adding more salt or capers if needed.
  5. Serve and garnish: Divide the ravioli mixture among plates and sprinkle each serving with shredded Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • If you prefer a stronger tangy flavor, increase the amount of capers slightly.
  • Use pesto ravioli for a herby twist or cheese ravioli for a classic taste.
  • Add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes while sautéing for some heat.
  • For a vegan version, substitute Parmesan cheese with a vegan cheese alternative or nutritional yeast.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated gently on the stovetop.
