Best Bacon Tomato Spinach Ravioli Toss Recipes
RAVIOLI WITH TOMATO, BACON & SPINACH
This is a variation of a recipe from Giada de Laurentis on "Everyday Italian". She used proscioutto and arugula and I substituted bacon and fresh baby spinach. She only used cheese ravioli but I used beef ravioli too. I also added the green onions because I had some that I needed to use. This turned out awesome and I had to post this to keep for future use. I hope you enjoy!

Steps:
- Bring 3 quarts of water to a boil and cook ravioli according to package directions.
- Add 2 tbsp olive oil to a large metal skillet and heat on high for 2-3 minutes until very hot.
- Add chopped bacon (it should immediately sizzle) and cook on medium heat until bacon is completely cooked and all fatty pieces have been cooked down.
- Drain the bacon reserving 2 tbsp of drippings.
- Add the minced garlic and chopped roma tomatoes to the skillet and continue cooking on medium heat for 2 minutes.
- Add the fresh baby spinach and sliced green onions and stir to coat the spinach so it will cook down, approximately 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the cooked ravioli and toss, and continue cooking on medium heat for 2-3 more minutes to ensure the entire dish is hot.
- Can be served with freshly grated parmigiano reggiano cheese and garlic bread if you wish. Enjoy!
