Ingredients

  • 8 ounce package ravioli
  • 1 tablespoon high quality extra-virgin olive oil

  • 12 mini mozzarella balls sliced in half
  • 10 basil leaves sliced in a chiffonade
  • 1/8 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Cook the ravioli according to the package instructions.
  • When the ravioli is done, drain the water from the pot. Add a drizzle of high-quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil, salt and papper, and toss the pan to coat the ravioli in the oil. Then transfer the ravioli to plates.
  • Top with the tomatoes, mozzarella and basil. Then finish with a grating of Parmigiano cheese.

  • You can use homemade ravioli, if you want to make it yourself.
