Rising Moon ravioli

Wild Mushroom Ravioli

In previous reviews I had given Rising Moon’s frozen White Bean and Kale ravioli and Spinach Florentine Ravioli five star rating, but their Wild Mushroom Ravioli are not up to the same standards.  The ravioli were quite bland and didn’t have the “savory, earthy flavor ” that the Rising Moon web site promises.  I got a hint of mushroom flavor in only a few bites.  The ingredient lists on the packaging and online include “organic mushrooms” without specifying which type of mushrooms, but given the mild flavor I am guessing they are white button mushrooms.  The ravioli also contain mozzarella and asiago cheese but the expected sharp bite of asiago is missing.

I boiled the ravioli as directed and then sauteed them in olive oil until they were slightly browned and crispy.  I plated them with Gardein’s vegan meatballs, which are awesome, and some home made red sauce.

These ravioli are vegetarian, but Rising Moon sells several vegan ravioli varieties which are Garlic Roasted Veggie Ravioli, Butternut Squash Ravioli, Classic Potato Gnocchi, and the Spinach Florentine Ravioli.
