Our Best Ideas for Ravioli

Ravioli are a hearty ingredient that always deliver a comforting meal. No matter what style you choose to cook up—cheese, vegetable or meat—the little pillows of pasta dough are packed with incredible flavor, giving them a leg up on other pastas (sorry, spaghetti). You can opt for store-bought or homemade, but either way, make sure to pair them with your favorite sauce, olive oil or grated cheese. This applies whether you're frying them, boiling them or tossing them into a casserole! Ready for some delicious options? This out-of-the-box pizza is a fun way to switch up your normal pie. Cheese ravioli create a surprising crust for this square pan pizza. They bake up crisp on the bottom, like crust, but the top is still pillowy and cheesy—adding a new dimension to your favorite pizza toppings.
