Ravioli Casserole
A simple tasty Ravioli recipe made with ingredients easily found in any local store. To make it a more local food you can try our homemade Pasta sauce. We make the sauce from Roma and similar tomatoes that we grow in our garden over the summer. If there's any left over it's easy to freeze for Winter use.Add a green salad and coleslaw or oven roasted vegetables to make this a well balanced Planetary diet dinner meal.
