I should start out by saying this is not a quick recipe. This is a Sunday afternoon project that is WELL worth the results! I searched and searched for a recipe that incorporates butternut squash into pasta dough to execute this ravioli dish that I had burning in my brain ever since my neighbor dropped off some gorgeous butternut squash. Warm and comforting flavors from the roasted squash and a dash of fresh nutmeg in the dough, soft pillows filled with creamy homemade ricotta (it’s easy and SO much better than store bought I promise!) and spinach, finished in pancetta and sage brown butter. I needed to figure out how to make this but wasn’t sure exactly how to incorporate the squash into the pasta dough. So I just experimented with the proportions and added flour until it was pliable. And it was gorgeous, so I had to share!

This is a quick meal I like to throw together when I have fresh corn and whatever veggies I have on hand. You can certainly use frozen corn too, but during corn season we love the crunch the fresh corn cut off the cob brings to this quick and easy dish.
Every year my family does a “Rib Fest” on Labor Day and we each bring our best ribs to the party. Everyone wins! I love sticky Asian-style ribs and this year mine turned out better than ever before. As my oldest said “Mom, you totally killed it.” 😂
The amazing part is you don’t need a smoker or anything fancy. Hope your family enjoys these as much as mine did! I used to get this dish with my dad at a restaurant by the lake when I was a kid called Sunsets. It’s so easy to make at home and is a fun way to spice things up a bit if you’re in a weeknight dinner rut.
A quick and easy appetizer that is adaptable to whatever you have in your pantry! A great reason to keep a package of puff pastry in your freezer to make it easy to throw together a great addition to a party or brunch spread.
This is a twenty minute meal from start to finish. It's a Tuesday night and I got home at 6:00, started cooking at 6:10 and we were sitting down at 6:30 to eat. I am not pulling your leg. Doesn't it look fantastic? (It WAS!!)
This super easy and quick meal is sure to please everyone. I use 2lb meat and 1lb pasta and we get two nights of meals for 2 adults and 2 kiddos out of it. What you'll need: |
