Quick, tasty, nutritious. My favorite type of meal. Here is another simple, easy lunch or dinner option that we really enjoy.
Typically the most difficult part of quick meals is having the ingredients on-hand. Thus it is essential that you do a meal plan each week before you go grocery shopping until you become proficient at cooking from scratch.
Ingredients:
Homemade tomato sauce (I keep extras in freezer)
A good quality ravioli (the organic spinach cheese ravioli in photo is from Costco)
Fresh basil (very easy to grow in garden or a pot)
Organic olive oil
In a glass or good quality pot (not one with a non-stick coating), place frozen homemade tomato sauce to thaw and heat while cooking ravioli.
Heat a heavy skillet (don't use one with a non-stick coating) over medium heat. Oil lightly with olive oil. Place ravioli (stored in refrigerator, not frozen) in skillet and lightly brown each side. I flip them a few times until they puff up like a pillow. Remove and continue cooking rest of ravioli. Dice up about 10 fresh basil leaves. Place ravioli on plate, top with homemade spaghetti sauce and fresh basil. Serve immediately.
