When Ryan and I enjoyed ravioli for dinner the past two weeks we’ve purchased two packages so my manly man could get his fill of the good stuff.
Yesterday at the grocery store we stumbled upon a family size pasta pouch with one pound of pasta.
Spinach Ricotta Pasta
I don’t know about you, but I just love knowing how much weight I will gain by eating my dinner. 😉
Since we’ve loved all of the other Monterey Pasta Company ravioli varieties, Ryan and I had high hopes for the family size spinach ricotta pasta poofs.
Ravioli
Boilin' Ravioli
I used my “fill up on veggies, not pasta” stragegy to the fullest tonight by incorporating lots of spinach, portobello mushrooms, onion and broccoli into my pasta bowl.
Veggie Topped Pasta
Veggies in my pasta = good. I think it makes me appreciate bites with ravioli even more.
Ryan and I enjoyed our ravioli in his and hers bowls… blue for the boy and pink for me.
His and Hers Bowls
Of course we had to add pasta sauce to our mix before diggin’ in.

Tasty fun!
Holiday Happenings
As I was driving home from work today I saw a Christmas tree in the window of a nearby business. The lights were on and dazzlin’ and it got me super excited for the holiday season.
Ryan already gave me the okay to decorate for Christmas this weekend since we’ll be gone for Thanksgiving and I want to come back to a festive Christmasy apartment! Hooray for the holidays!!!
Also, my girlfriends and I selected our Secret Santas today. Holiday cheer is in the air.

That pasta looks delicious, making me want some.
the rav’s look so great! I use the fill up on veggies, not pasta too! last night I made some carba nada noodles with meatless meatballs and packed in the veggies so I ended up not even eating a serving of pasta! it works 🙂
