Description
A delicious roasted bell pepper and ravioli dish, topped with basil pesto and Parmesan cheese.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 bell peppers (1 red, 1 orange, 1 green)
- 1 small yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (plus more for serving)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1/2 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 (10-ounce) package fresh 4-cheese ravioli
- 1/3 cup basil pesto
- freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
- Fresh basil (or parsley, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Remove stems and seeds from bell peppers and chop peppers into even, 1-inch cubes. Thinly slice the onion.
- Add chopped bell peppers, sliced onion, olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dried basil to a very large sheet pan (15×21-inch) or 2 smaller ones. Toss with your hands until well combined. Space out veggies in an even layer so they don’t overlap. Bake for 10 minutes.
- Remove and add tomatoes and minced garlic on top. Toss to combine, spacing veggies out again to allow room for roasting. Return to the oven for another 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to boil. Generously salt the water (about 1 teaspoon salt for every 4 cups of water). Boil the ravioli according to package directions, subtracting 1 minute from the indicated time. Drain.
- When veggies finish roasting, remove from oven and immediately toss in the drained ravioli on top. Spoon pesto evenly over everything and toss on the sheet pan to combine. Return to the oven for 1–2 minutes.
- Remove from oven and serve immediately, adding an extra drizzle of olive oil and a few more spoonfuls of basil per plate. Top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and if desired, some fresh basil or parsley. Enjoy!
