Ingredients

1 Pound cheese ravioli, cooked in salted water
2 Tbs butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ Cup sun-dried tomatoes, drained and chopped
1 Cup chicken broth
1 Cup heavy cream
1 Cup Parmesan cheese
3 Cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
1 Tbs garlic powder
1 Tbs Italian seasoning

Instructions

Step 1: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat and saute the garlic and sun-dried tomatoes together for 2 minutes, until fragrant.
Step 2: Stir in the chicken broth, Parmesan cheese, and heavy cream, mixing well to combine.
Step 3: Season the sauce with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Let the sauce simmer gently for 3 to 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
Step 4: Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and stir it into the sauce until it wilts.
Step 5: Add the cooked ravioli and gently toss them into the sauce until they are evenly coated and heated through.
Step 6: Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your creamy Tuscan ravioli.

Tips & Variations

For a vegetarian version, replace chicken broth with vegetable broth.
Try adding sliced mushrooms or sun-dried tomato oil for extra depth of flavor.
Use gluten-free ravioli if you need a gluten-free option.
Freshly grated Parmesan enhances flavor better than pre-grated cheese.
If the sauce is too thick, stir in a splash of reserved pasta water to loosen.

Storage

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop over low heat, adding a little broth or cream if the sauce thickens too much. Avoid microwaving directly to prevent uneven heating.
