Easy Spinach and Cheese Ravioli with Shrimp

Category: Breads, Pasta

Ingredients:
10-12 raviolis
1 cup of medium cooked, peeled and deveined shrimp (with or without tail)
1/2 c. parmesan cheese, grated
1/2 tbs. olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 c. peas
chopped parsley, for garnish

Directions:
in a medium pot, bring 6 qts. water to a boil in high heat.  Once it's boiling, add ravioli and turn heat down to medium heat (you want to make sure the ravioli cook slowly, otherwise the filling will burst out of them).  add salt and a drizzle of olive oil to the pot.  Boil for about 10 mins. 
When ready, remove from heat, drain water and move into a warmed bowl, add the olive oil and toss lightly until all coated with oil.  Set aside until ready to use.
In skillet, drizzle a little olive oil, and sautee the shrimp. It should take about 5 mins or until they turn light pink. (don't overcook your shrimp or it will be like chewing on an eraser). add the peas, sautee for another 2 mins and add the parmesan cheese and salt and pepper to taste.  Blend it all together and add the raviolis, mix it all in and remove from heat.  Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.  Garlic bread goes great with it!!

  2. Hey, I have some shallots I need to use. I just bought some raviolis and have shrimp from my seafood deal :), maybe I'll make a variation of this so I can use those onions!
