Try this recipe and it might become a new family favorite!

    What kind of ravioli to use

    • Store-bought mushroom-stuffed ravioli. I used mushroom-stuffed refrigerated ravioli that I bought at my local grocery store. You can use ravioli (refrigerated or frozen) stuffed with anything: cheese-stuffed, veggie-stuffed ravioli, or pretty much any kind of ravioli you see in the store.
    • You can make your own ravioli from scratch if you like and dress them up with the roasted sweet potato mixture using this recipe. Here are 2 delicious recipes that provide step-by-step instructions on how to make homemade ravioli from scratch: Spinach Ravioli with Ricotta Cheese Filling, in Tomato Cream Sauce and Goat Cheese Ravioli with Creamy Mushroom Parmesan Sauce.

    Why make it

    • 30-Minute dinner. Because I used store-bought ravioli, this recipe is done in 30 minutes. Perfect for busy weeknights. It is also very colorful and makes a beautiful presentation - great for entertaining company!
    • Super flavorful. This recipe blends sweet and savory flavors in a perfect combination where neither flavor is domineering. The end result is a well-balanced dinner with tons of flavors!
    • Holiday recipe. You can serve ravioli with sweet potatoes as a meatless dish for the holidays! It will add color and uniqueness to your holiday table on Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Eve.

    Meatless pasta recipe

    • Because I used meatless ravioli (I used store-bought mushroom-stuffed ravioli), this recipe is meatless and vegetarian. You can also use cheese-filled ravioli, pesto-stuffed ravioli, or veggie ravioli.
    • If you use gluten-free ravioli (plenty of options in the grocery stores!) - then this dinner is gluten-free!

    Substitutions

    • Pasta. This recipe can also be made with store-bought tortellini or gnocchi. Short-shaped pasta would be delicious, too, such as bow-tie (farfalle), fusilli, or penne.
    • Sweet potatoes can be replaced with roasted butternut squash!
    • Veggies. Use your favorite veggies! I recommend asparagus, green beans, spinach, and broccoli.

    Can you make this ahead?

    Yes, this is a meal-prep-friendly recipe! There is no cream and no complicated ingredients. Make the whole recipe in advance, refrigerate it and serve within 5 days. Or freeze it for up to 2 months.

    Storage and Reheating Tips

    What I really love about this recipe is that ravioli and sweet potatoes store well and reheat well!

    • Fridge. Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
    • Freezer. You can freeze this in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
    • Reheat on the stovetop. Reheat the ravioli with the sweet potato mixture in a large skillet on the stovetop on medium heat for about 10 minutes or until warmed through. Add a little bit of olive oil when reheating.
    • Reheat in the microwave oven. You can also microwave the refrigerated leftovers.

      The flavor of the vegetables was great, but adding the pasta at the end left the pasta without any kind of sauce and kind of dry. I feel like something was missing.

        Glad you liked the flavor of the veggies. I tried to keep this on the healthier side, but you can add this:

        Once all the veggies are cooked and combined, add about 2 or 4 tablespoons of salted butter and melt it gently on lower heat. Then add ravioli, and mix everything. Season with more salt and pepper, if desired.
