Speedy Spinach Ricotta Ravioli


Mamma mia! Here’s some perfect pasta prepared at pronto speed. It starts with a few chopped veggies and chicken sausage crumbles that cook up quickly in the pan. Once you’ve got your water boiling, in go the ravioli, which become perfectly al dente in a flash since they’re fresh. After that, all you gotta do is stir in the creamy sauce and put it on a plate. Then you mangiare! Mangiare! Just like mamma would’ve said.

9 ounce
Sweet Italian Chicken Sausage

1 unit
Roma Tomato

1 tablespoon
Italian Seasoning

1 unit
Chicken Stock Concentrate

2 unit
Scallions

1 unit
Lemon

9 ounce
Spinach and Ricotta Ravioli
(ContainsMilk,Egg,Wheat)

4 tablespoon
Sour Cream
(ContainsMilk)

Instructions

Wash and dry all produce. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Remove sausage from casings; discard casings. Trim, then thinly slice scallions, keeping greens and whites separate. Core and seed tomato, then dice into ½-inch cubes. Cut lemon into wedges.

Heat 1 TBSP oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites, sausage, and Italian seasoning, breaking up meat into pieces. Cook, tossing, until sausage is browned and cooked through and scallions are softened, 3-5 minutes. Stir in tomato and cook until just softened, 1-2 minutes.

Once water boils, add ravioli to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente and floating to the top, 4-5 minutes. Scoop out and reserve ½ cup ravioli cooking water, then carefully drain. TIP: Gently shake your strainer with the drained ravioli in it to dry them off as much as possible.

Reduce heat under pan with sausage mixture to low, then add a squeeze of lemon juice, a small splash of reserved ravioli cooking water, and stock concentrate. Give everything a stir, scraping up any browned bits on bottom of pan. Stir in 1 TBSP butter and sour cream. Season with salt and pepper. TIP: Add more cooking water as needed to give sauce a loose consistency.

Carefully stir ravioli into pan. Season with salt, pepper, and a squeeze or two of lemon juice (to taste).

Divide ravioli mixture between bowls, then sprinkle with scallion greens. Serve any remaining lemon on the side for squeezing over.

Chicken Lo Mein

The secret to supremely slurpable, bouncy lo mein is thick, fresh noodles, which have a satisfying chewiness that you just can’t get with the skinny kind. That’s why our version is such a treat: you’ll be using wide udon noodles, which do an admirable job of soaking up the savory soy and hoisin sauce on each and every one of their squiggly curves. They’re tossed with green beans, carrots, mushrooms, and chicken for a bowlful of veggie- and protein-packed goodness. 12 ounce Chicken Tenders 8 ounce Udon Noodles ( Contains Wheat , Soy ) 2 clove Garlic 1 unit Vegetable Stock Concentrate 1 tablespoon Hoisin Sauce ( Contains Soy ) 4 ounce Shredded Carrots 6 ounce Green Beans 1 thumb Ginger 4 ounce Button Mushrooms 2 unit Scallions 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce ( Contains Soy ) Wash and dry all produce.
