Roasted Veggie Ravioli with Brown Butter Sage Sauce

Are you a busy parent looking for a delicious weeknight dinner idea?!

Me, too.

I think some of you guys think I cook these time consuming extravagant meals for my family all the time during the week….but it really couldn’t be further from the truth!! Honestly, I am doing the same things you all are doing. When dinner time comes around, I’m usually juggling getting Grayson settled in front of his little tv show and holding Luke while I stir a pot. Having two kids has made me REALLY efficient at doing many tasks one-handed, cooking included! The truth of the matter is that I love cooking but, during the week, I’m always trying to make for simple healthy meals everyone likes (keyword: simple). 

I was recently asked to give Buitoni new pasta a try and I happily obliged! We have been fans of the product for years and, while I love making homemade pasta when I have time, I also am not above grabbing a package of ravioli from the store and sprucing it up with some ingredients from our local farmers market. 😉 

For this recipe, I used Buitoni Parmesan and Black Pepper Ravioli that I found in the refrigerator section of my local store. I added some chopped, roasted root veggies and did a SUPER fast brown butter sage sauce. The whole meal was on the table in about half an hour and it was a big hit. I sent leftovers with school to Grayson the next day and let’s just say there wasn’t a trace left that day in his lunchbox. 

Roasting veggies in the fall makes me very, very happy. I used my favorites here, most of which came in my weekly CSA box. Carrots, butternut squash, beets and parsnips! 

This is definitely a meal I can see myself making on repeat this season. I hope you guys enjoy it as much as we did! I know you’re always asking for more weeknight dinner ideas so, busy mamas, this one is for you.

Ingredients

• 1 package Buitoni Black Pepper and Parmesan Ravioli
• 2 small beets, scrubbed and small diced
• 1/4 whole butternut squash, peeled and small diced
• 1 whole parsnip, peeled and small diced
