Pesto Ravioli and Veggies

Pesto Tossed Parmesan & Black Pepper Ravioli and Oven Roasted Garlic Veggies

I can’t believe it is already AUGUST and this is the first recipe I’m sharing with pesto in it!! Pesto is a summer staple for my family! We’ll usually toss noodles in pesto and add some cherry tomatoes, but this dish really scales up your typical pesto-pasta dish. First, the ravioli is freshly-made and has real cracked pepper in it (YUM) and then it’s tossed with roasted and deliciously-seasoned veggies.

The ravioli I’m using today is the BUITONI Parmesan & Black Pepper Ravioli. (I used it in this delicious sausage + brussels dish). These freshly made raviolis are filled to the brim with real cracked black pepper and four cheeses — creamy ricotta, aged Parmesan and Romano, and imported Grana Padano. Each ravioli is bursting with delicious flavors and no GMO ingredients.

You can pick pretty much whatever veggies you like best (or have growing in your garden!) for this dish — it’s super easy to adapt since the ravioli and pesto pair well with so many things!
