Blogworthy!

I know, I know! I haven't updated in a long time! We have been eating the same things over and over - not really in a rut - but not doing anything particularly creative that we haven't already shared.

Italian food is absolutely one of my favorite foods and I've had ravioli on my mind for quite a while now. We eat alot of whole wheat pasta - and occasionally a vegan pizza - every now and then some vegan lasagna - but ravioli is what I have wanted. Now, I don't have the attachments for my mixer - and I certainly haven't found any ready-made ravioli that is legal for our diet - so I needed lots of time for this.

Oh my goodness! These turned out really, really good! I posted the recipe here. I boiled most of them, threw a couple in a non-stick skillet and cooked them, and put a few in the oven on a cookie sheet. The boiled ones were definitely the best. I served them with some 365 brand fat-free pasta sauce from Whole Foods. Yummy!

Disclaimer: this recipe is time consuming and you must roll the pasta sheets very, very thin or you will have a gummy, not-delicious mess - however, it is definitely worth the trouble for a treat.
