Ravioli with a Tomato and Cream Sauce

I used to buy things in bulk at Costco and loved getting their ravioli! It usually came plain so I could use whatever sauce I wanted with it. You can easily find ravioli stuffed with different ingredients in grocery stores. Some are fresh and some are frozen. Grab whichever one you prefer! This sauce is delicious and light. It pairs really well with spinach and mozzarella ravioli or a lobster ravioli! Happy cooking!

Yields: 2 - 4 servings

Ingredients:
Ravioli package of your choice (grab 2 if the package is small)
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 tbsp. garlic, minced (about 3 cloves)
5 small Roma tomatoes, diced
1/3 - 1/2 bunch of fresh basil, roughly chopped
1/2 pint heavy whipping cream
Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:
1. Prepare the ravioli per instructions on the package. Set aside.

2. Add olive oil to a large wok on medium heat. Add the onion and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the garlic and continue cooking until the onion is translucent. Be sure to stir it frequently so the garlic does not burn. Add the tomatoes and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Add basil and allow the basil to wilt, 2-3 minutes. Lower the heat and add the cream. Allow it to heat through, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally. Once heated through, add the salt and pepper to your liking. Add the ravioli to the sauce and let the flavors meld for an additional 1 - 2 minutes. Serve immediately.
