This was a delicious dinner and so easy! I added mozzarella and Parmesan of course because I LOVE cheese so much! I used frozen ravioli, it was amazing and a definite make again! Thanks for a great recipe!

Hi Milisa,
The recipe doesn’t say to cook the ravioli before adding it to the sauce. So I’m wondering if I add the ravioli to the sauce uncooked. I’m planning to make this meal for dinner tonight! Thanks! Teresa

Hi Teresa,
Yes cook the ravioli first. I hope you enjoy it.
