Ingredients:
- 1 package (9 ounces) refrigerated ravioli
- 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
- 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
- Salt and pepper to taste

- Meanwhile, combine crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, Parmesan cheese, basil, salt, and pepper in a saucepan.
- Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 10 minutes, or until sauce has thickened.
- Drain ravioli and add to sauce. Stir gently to coat.
- Serve immediately.
Suggestions for Improvement:
Sauce:
- Use fresh tomatoes instead of canned for a brighter flavor.
- Add a splash of red wine for richness and depth.
- Sauté some chopped onion and garlic in the sauce before adding the tomatoes for extra aromatics.
- Season the sauce with Italian herbs like oregano, thyme, and rosemary.
Ravioli:
- Try making your own ravioli using fresh pasta and a variety of fillings, such as spinach and ricotta or meat and cheese.
- If using refrigerated ravioli, consider toasting them in a pan before adding to the sauce for a crispy exterior.
Other Enhancements:
- Top with additional Parmesan cheese and grated hard cheese like Pecorino Romano.
- Serve with a side of crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
- Add a dollop of ricotta or cream for a creamy touch.
- Garnish with fresh arugula or spinach leaves for a peppery contrast.
Tips:
- Use a large skillet or Dutch oven to make sure the ravioli has enough room to fully coat with sauce.
- Stir the sauce occasionally to prevent it from burning and sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Don’t overcook the ravioli, as it can become mushy.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed before serving.
