Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by bringing a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil over high heat. Gently drop the ravioli into the water and cook for 3-4 minutes until tender.
  2. While the ravioli cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Add chopped vegetables and a pinch of salt to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes until vibrant and tender, yet still crunchy.
  4. Carefully toss the drained ravioli into the skillet with sautéed veggies. If needed, add reserved pasta water for a silky sauce.
  5. Finish by adding grated Parmesan cheese and black pepper, mixing until the cheese melts into the dish. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  6. Serve hot in a large bowl, garnished with more Parmesan if desired. Enjoy!
