Greek Ravioli Skillet
www.tasteofhome.com/
Looking to please picky little palates? One tester loved this simple skillet entree so much, she made it at home for her 2-year-old daughter, who said “Mmmmm!” after every bite
Prep/Total Time: 30 min.
Yield: 6 Servings
Ingredients
1 package (20 ounces) refrigerated cheese ravioli
1 pound ground beef
1 medium zucchini, sliced
1 small red onion, chopped
3 cups marinara or spaghetti sauce
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
1/2 cup cubed feta cheese
1/2 cup pitted Greek olives, halved
2 tablespoons minced fresh basil, divided
Directions
Cook ravioli according to package directions.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook the beef, zucchini and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain.
Drain ravioli; add to skillet.
Stir in the marinara sauce, water and pepper.
Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
Add the tomatoes, cheese, olives and 1 tablespoon basil.
Sprinkle with remaining basil.
cooks notes:
The flavors are delicious together. There are a few changes I think I'll make next time: I'll brown the hamburger with the onion first and drain it, before adding the zucchini. Also, I think I'll either use mini raviolis or tortellini--the larger sized raviolis get a little torn up. Other than that, the recipe was delicious and easy to prepare. It was a hit with the teenagers at our house, too!
