My Fanciful Accounts

“The act of writing is the act of discovering what you believe.” ~David Hare

The following recipe came from January 2013 issue of Woman's Day magazine. I have included the link. Changed this one up somewhat with surprisingly good results. I liked this recipe so much better than the traditional ravioli with pasta sauce, and it didn't take that long to prepare. The article said it was a 20" dish. While I did not watch the total time, it did seem to come together pretty quickly. I added a tossed salad and garlic breadsticks to complete.
brown the sausage



Ingredients
1 pound cheese ravioli
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 pound Italian turkey sausage, casings removed
12 ounces Brussels sprouts, cut and thinly sliced
Kosher salt
Pepper
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
Grated Parmesan or Romano cheese, for serving


grate the sprouts


mix it all together

pour over the ravioli and sprinkle with cheese

Cook the ravioli according to package directions.Directions
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned, 6 to 7 minutes.
Add the Brussels sprouts, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook, tossing, for 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Serve over the ravioli and sprinkle with cheese, if desired.

I used bulk Italian sausage instead of turkey sausage. Therefore, no casings needed to be removed and no olive oil was required. The ravioli was a little over a pound- 1lb. 9 oz bag- but I did not alter any other ingredient amount to accommodate the difference. I used the hand grater for the brussels sprouts. Since I had vegetable stock open, I used that in place of the chicken stock. Lastly, I used grated Parmesan not Romano cheese when served. This recipe is a keeper as I will definitely make again maybe using mushroom ravioli.

Tip: For a twist, try spinach tortellini, mushroom ravioli, or butternut squash agnolotti.
