The flavors of Italy are best expressed in simplicity: a dash of spices, a little oil and dinner's on the table in minutes--especially if you use frozen spinach and frozen ravioli or tortellini.

Quick, Easy, and Tasty BUT I like the recipe. It's simple and prepares quickly for a nice weeknight meal. However, I searched through 3 or 4 different grocery stores to find the mythical ravioli or tortellini that has the calorie count listed in this recipe. After searching through more brands of frozen and fresh pastas than I'd like to think about, I can say that there is just no way to get the calorie count listed here. The amount of time I spent looking for pasta probably counteracted the time savings for the first two or three times I make this meal. Pros: Quick, Easy, Tasty Cons: Calorie Count is WAY Off

This recipe was a huge surprise. I used whole-wheat ravioli and at first I thought pasta without sauce would not taste good but to my surprise the flavors of the spinach, oil, and red pepper are wonderful. , woodbridge, VA
