This is one major upgrade to beef ravioli! Bacon and parmesan kick up the decadence of the dish while broccoli turns it into a full meal. You'll never leave ravioli on its own again.


serves/makes:
  
ready in:
  under 30 minutes

ingredients

3 cups broccoli flowerets
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon bacon bits, real, not imitation
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
25 ounces frozen beef ravioli

directions

Bring 2 1/2 quarts of unsalted water to a boil in a covered 4 1/2 quart or larger pot.

Meanwhile, combine the parmesan, ricotta, oil, bacon bits, and red pepper in a 3 quart or larger serving bowl. Stir well to mix and set aside.

When the water reaches a rapid boil, add the broccoli and ravioli. Cover and bring the water back to a boil. Crack the lid and cook at a medium boil until the pasta is tender, about 5 minutes.

When the pasta is done, drain it and the broccoli in a colander, shaking to remove as much water as possible, and add to the serving bowl. Toss well to coat with the sauce and serve.
