How To Make the Dreamy Creamy Tuscan Ravioli

Step 1: Sauté the Garlic and Sun-Dried Tomatoes

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and softened.

Step 2: Build the Creamy Sauce

Pour in the broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in the heavy cream and Italian seasoning. Let it gently bubble for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.

Step 3: Wilt the Spinach

Add the fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 4: Add the Ravioli

Gently add your cooked ravioli into the sauce. Toss everything to coat well, letting the ravioli soak up the creamy Tuscan flavor.

Step 5: Finish with Parmesan

Sprinkle in grated parmesan and stir until melted into the sauce. Serve immediately, topped with extra parmesan if you’d like.

Serving and Storing Dreamy Creamy Tuscan Ravioli

This dish is best served hot and fresh from the pan, when the sauce is at its creamiest and the ravioli are perfectly coated. It serves about 4 people generously, especially if paired with a salad or bread.

To store leftovers, place in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave with a splash of cream or broth to loosen the sauce.
