Thou shalt eat stuffed pasta…

…preferably with a browned-butter, sage parmesan sauce - add wilted spinach. Tonight’s meal was one born of impromtu hunger (as I find many are during the week). I love fresh pasta, and if I can find good raviolis with appealing fillings, they are a must cook in my kitchen. If you have the time to make them homemade, kudos! But being…

Love tzatziki sauce? I do. Love…
