Ravioli in a Fire Roasted Tomato Sauce
April is National Poetry Month and my students have been learning about poetry in reading and writing. The other day I was meeting with a student to review his poems and he had written a poem about ravioli. Ravioli! I was cracking up- such a random topic- but his poem was awesome. Not only was the writing good but I was left craving some ravioli. I was craving them so badly that I had to go to Costco immediately and get some spinach and cheese ravioli- delish.
This sauce is really barely a sauce. I just thew together some odds and ends and poured it on top of the ravioli. What I loved was that it was fresh, tasty, and healthy. Can you beat that combination? I think not. John and I both enjoyed this recipe and felt that the sauce was a nice change of pace from the regular marinara sauce.

"Barely just sauce" is usually the best kind! You had me at fire roasted tomatoes.
