It’s time for football and tailgating again, and that means it’s time for snacking too. These crispy baked Parmesan ravioli will be a real crowd pleaser and they’re easy to make too.
Perfect For Tailgating
When I first saw these ravioli on Kleinworth Co, I knew immediately this was something I just had to make.
And since we’re getting into football season again as well as tailgating parties, I can’t think of a more perfect food to compliment those occasions than this ravioli.
They stay perfectly crisp so they will transport well–something you have to be mindful of with tailgating. I paired this with my quick chunky tomato sauce which not only is delicious in itself, but it’s a good keeper because it contains no meat or anything that requires refrigeration. The acidity of the tomatoes keeps it from spoiling too.
Novel Idea
Gina really had a great idea when she came up with this.
My idea of ravioli was boiled or steamed with some kind of pasta sauce. I have to say, I love this way of making ravioli!
Another benefit to these is there is no added fat and they are baked.
Most folks, including myself, can get behind something that’s healthier and tastes good too.
Sauce Is Your Choice
Since the sauce is the thing that pulls this dish together, I recommend using your own sauce or a high-quality ready-made pasta sauce.
For these I used my Quick Chunky Tomato Sauce. I felt that the chunkiness of the sauce added more “chew” factor to the ravioli.
