Riding Moon Garlic and Roasted Veggie Ravioli

Rating:

I needed to make a quick dinner this weekend and once again turned to Rising Moon’s line of frozen ravioli.  The company began with a ravioli subscription service, delivered by bicycle, and then expanded to include foccaccia breads and sauces and now provides frozen pasta to supermarkets.

I gave their White Bean and Kale Ravioli and Spinach Florentine Ravioli 5 star ratings, but felt their Mushroom Ravioli fell short and only gave them 2.5 stars.  This time I tried Rising Moon’s Organic Garlic & Roasted Veggie Ravioli which are part of their vegan line and are filled with tofu, butternut squash, spinach, garlic, carrots, tomato and onion powder.  With their distinct roast garlic flavor that can complement a strong marinara sauce, these ravioli rate 5 stars.  The other components of the filling don’t really provide much flavor but presumably add some nutrient value.  I boiled the ravioli as instructed on the package and served them with a homemade spicy red sauce that worked with really well with the ravioli’s roasted garlic flavor.  These ravioli make an excellent quick dinner for two.
