Quick Ravioli with Sausage Meatballs
Quick Ravioli with Sausage Meatballs is a super simple dinner to make any night of the week! Comes together in just 30 minutes!
You might be expecting something along the lines for an Irish celebration but supper in a hurry, that’s the ticket around here. I like to keep a bag of frozen ravioli or tortellini in the freezer for just this kind of meal.
As spring starts to come early and with the time change, supper is starting to be a little later every day. The guys have been working outside until it starts to get dark. This was ready in about 30 minutes and ready to go as the guys starting trickling through the door. Starving of course.
I made the meatballs small so that they would cook quickly and I used a pasta sauce from the grocery store. It doesn’t get any easier. Hearty and filling and just what the guys love.
We are also loving these easy Swedish Meatballs from The Cookie Rookie!
I am busy in the kitchen today and I am anxious to sit down this evening and finish this book. I can’t hardly put it down, but these guys of mine have come to expect food and lots of it.
What do you have planned for the weekend? Any good book recommendations? I’d love to hear about them!
