Double Wild Mushroom Ravioli’s with Arugula & Parmesan Recipe

by DanicasDaily on May 12, 2010

Happy Hump Day all!  I sometimes think I dream of mushrooms ~ I know some of my friends who think I am crazy for loving fungus, but, they are crazy, not me :D   I couldn’t wait to get through my eats today so I could get on to my new recipe that I have been dreaming about ever since I picked up Buitoni Wild Mushroom Ravioli’s that are stuffed with portabella mushrooms, roasted garlic, and CHEESE!!!

I think my Double Wild Mushroom Ravioli’s with Arugula & Parmesan might have even been Mushroom Channel worthy :D Maybe…I <3 Mushrooms!

Ok…I’’ stop rambling about mushrooms and get on with my day.  I started off my day with some basic oats topped with delicious fresh organic berries!

I met The Husband at home for lunch today ~ On the menu, these FANTASTIC Turkey/AVOCADO subs.  I ate half plus 2 bites of the other for 5 points so I could have room for

My lunch did an AWESOME job at keeping me full so I listened to my body, not my mouth (that wanted ChocoLOVE) and didn’t have an afternoon snack.

Dinner tonight featured the Buitoni Wild Mushroom Ravioli’s that we got for free from FoodBuzz as part of the tastemaker program.

I pretty much LOVE all the Buitoni pastas, but, I have never tried these ravioli’s.

I pretty much decided how I was going to make our ravioli’s when I saw these Baby Bella Mushrooms.

Gently stir to combine.

Place 1 cup of fresh arugula onto your serving bowl/plate.

Top with additional parmesan and crushed red pepper flakes if desired.  BIG BOWLS of PASTA and MUSHROOMS make me happy ~ I LOVE how the greens bulk it up!

Dig in and enjoy your rich, creamy, earthy ravioli pillows of goodness.  You can really taste both types of mushrooms and I LOVED the two different textures of the wilted and fresh arugula.

DELICIOUS!  The Husband gave it 4.5 stars out of 5 ~ I agree :D   I am definitely dreaming of buying these ravioli’s again!

Dessert was a little brie Laughing Cow with Apricot Preserves (3 pts)

I tried these ravioli last year through Foodbuzz and LOVED them. I may have to get the same kind this year with the coupon I have. Last year I recall making a mushroom truffle sauce. It was really good. I think I may follow your footsteps this time. Extra mushrooms are always welcome in my book :)
