Jenny Craig Recipe Creation: Toasted Ravioli

Special thanks to Jenny Craig for their sponsorship of this post.

Did I tell y’all that I had a vacation get cancelled this month?  I was scheduled to be in Florida two weeks ago when Tropical Storm Michael quickly developed into a dangerous weather situation.

After scheduling and rescheduling my flight trying to get there, I finally waved the white flag when Michael gain strength and quickly became a Category 4 hurricane.

In preparation for the trip and potentially traveling on the program, I ordered a few extra of the Jenny Craig Cheese Ravioli because they travel so well.  With extra Cheese Ravioli in my cupboard due to my missed vacation, I decided to finally take a moment to create this dish… which has been on my idea list I’ve been keeping.

I know, you feel like you’ve been whisked away to the Hill in St. Louis.  Fun fact:  Toasted Ravioli was born in St. Louis, in the amazing Italian dining district known as the Hill.  This dish is just a fun twist on the original, and comes together very easily using a few ingredients you have in your cupboard.

Ingredients

  

• 1 pkg. Jenny Craig Cheese Ravioli
• cooking spray
• garlic powder
• basil (for garnish)

Instructions

 

• Open your package of ravioli and remove the ravioli from the dish, scraping the sauce back into the container reserving it as a dipping sauce.
  
• Place your ravioli in a colander and rinse lightly with water to remove the sauce.
  
• Place the ravioli on a plate.  Spray one side lightly with cooking spray, and sprinkle with garlic powder and garlic salt.  Flip the ravioli, spray and sprinkle.  Note:  Be sure to go lighter with the garlic salt than the garlic powder.  
  
• Place your ravioli in your air fryer (here is the one I use).  Cook for 8-10 minutes at 370 degrees until your ravioli is bubbly and toasty.  For conventional oven, cook for 27-30 minutes at 425 degrees on a cooking sheet prepared with cooking spray, flipping halfway through.
• Move your sauce to a small bowl for dipping.  Microwave sauce for about 15 seconds, covered.
• Move your ravioli  to a plate and allow to cool for a few minutes.  Garnish with basil ribbons, if desired.
