Ingredients
  

1 package (12 oz) refrigerated fresh spinach and ricotta ravioli

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup fresh spinach, chopped

Salt and black pepper, to taste

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Fresh basil or parsley for garnish

Extra Parmesan cheese for serving

Instructions
 

Cook the Ravioli: In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the spinach and ricotta ravioli according to package instructions. Typically, this takes about 3-4 minutes until they float to the top. Drain the ravioli and set aside, reserving a little pasta water.

    Prepare the Sauce: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes (if using). Sauté for about 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.

      Make it Creamy: Reduce the heat to low. Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring continuously, allowing it to simmer gently. Add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until melted and well combined.

        Add Spinach: Stir in the chopped fresh spinach and cook until it wilts, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to taste. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of the reserved pasta water to reach desired consistency.

          Combine Ravioli and Sauce: Gently fold the cooked ravioli into the creamy garlic sauce, making sure all the ravioli are well coated. Cook together for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat through.

            Serve: Plate the creamy garlic spinach ravioli, garnishing with fresh basil or parsley and extra Parmesan cheese on top. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
