Ravioli Primavera with Tomatoes, Asparagus & Fresh Herbs

Print Recipe

A vibrant and fresh pasta dish that celebrates spring with colorful vegetables and delicate ravioli.

Ingredients

  • Fresh Ravioli (your choice: cheese, spinach, or butternut squash)
  • Tomatoes (Diced: cherry, grape, or ripe)
  • Asparagus (Cut into Pieces)
  • Garlic (Minced)
  • Fresh Herbs (Basil, Parsley, etc.)
  • Olive Oil (extra virgin)
  • Salt and Black Pepper
  • Parmesan Cheese (Optional)

Instructions

  1. Boil the Ravioli: Start by bringing a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Gently drop in your fresh ravioli — they’ll take about 3-5 minutes depending on their size. Always refer to the package instructions.
  2. Prep the Veggies: While your pasta is cooking, gather your veggies. Dice those tomatoes and cut your asparagus into bite-sized pieces. If your garlic isn’t already minced, now’s the time to crush and chop it.
  3. Sauté the Asparagus and Garlic: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Toss in the asparagus first, sautéing for about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
  4. Add the Tomatoes and Herbs: Add your diced tomatoes to the skillet; let them cook for about 3-5 minutes until they become juicy. Stir in your fresh herbs and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Combine with Ravioli: Once your ravioli are cooked, drain them and add them to the skillet with the veggie mixture. Toss everything together gently.
  6. Serve & Enjoy: Transfer to a serving platter or individual plates. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle herbs on top.

Notes

Feel free to add grilled chicken or shrimp for extra protein. Use nutritional yeast or vegan cheese as a dairy-free option.
