chicken sausage & kale ravioli with sauteed green beans and walnuts !



i love ravioli and no not the canned kind. the fresh hand made ones. its so fun to make,  but it takes forever ! and with a working husband, messy house  and two kids well you get the idea, today  i’m going  with trader joes! and they make a mean ravioli .. ( i'm using chicken sausage & kale) if you dress it up right  it taste just as good as homemade!

1 package of ravioli (any kind)
a hand full of string beans or asparagus
1/2 a lemon
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
3 Tablespoons of butter
1/4 cup of walnuts
salt and pepper to taste
2 Tablespoons of parsley (fresh)

boil your ravioli until done (they will float to the top) and i use the fresh kind, not the frozen so this literally takes 2-3 minutes. you need to watch it to make sure they don't burst.

in a separate pan add butter and saute your string beans or asparagus until tender and season with salt and pepper. once tender add juice of half a lemon, walnuts, cheese and parsley cook for another 1-2 minutes.
last add the cooked ravioli and toss to combine. its that simple. fresh, clean good eating now awaits you!!
