Who knew meatless meals could be so amazing? I love this one. I'm a huge fan of ravioli, Buitoni especially... and what's not to love about white beans and spinach?
This dish was so easy to make, and almost a one-pot meal (aside from having to cook the ravioli in another pot). However, in hindsight, I'm thinking that I probably could have cooked them in the pan (had there been a little more liquid) - kind of like my Spaghetti: Risotto-Style. So many variations in my head... different veggies, different liquids and sauces.... yum! I'm truly enjoying this meatless meal exploration! What's YOUR favorite meatless dish?
Best dishes and yummy dreams!

My favorite meatless dish is roasted seaweed. An acquired taste, but great. ~Mary
ReplyDeleteYour meal sounds so healthy and delicious!!
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious! I keep meaning to try beans in pasta, it's such an Italian combination!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite meatless meal would be a bowl of pasta simply tossed in butter and Parm or a simple tomato sauce.
I agree with Candy - I keep wanting to use beans in pasta dishes since I've seen so many amazing looking recipes, but haven't remembered to give it a try yet. This looks yummy!
