Steps:

• Boil 16 spinach ravioli as the label directs. Drain and pat dry. Fry the ravioli in 1/2 cup olive oil until golden on both sides, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Mix 2 tablespoons pesto sauce with 1/2 cup bottled vinaigrette. Place the ravioli on skewers and dip in the sauce.

Steps:

• For the pesto: In a food processor, combine the basil, parsley, mint, Parmesan, pine nuts, anchovy paste, pepper and garlic. Pulse until chunky. With the machine running, gradually add the olive oil until the pesto is smooth.
• For the ravioli: In a medium bowl, mix together the ricotta, mozzarella, mascarpone, Parmesan, breadcrumbs, nutmeg, 3/4 teaspoon salt and the pepper.
• In a small bowl, mix together the egg and 1 teaspoon water until smooth.
• Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the edges of the wonton wrappers with the egg mixture. Spoon 1 level tablespoon of the filling into the center of each wonton wrapper. Fold the opposite corners of each wonton wrapper over to form triangle shapes. Seal the edges firmly, pressing out any air around the filling. (Can be made a few hours in advance. Cover with foil and refrigerate until ready to use.)
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons salt and the olive oil. In batches, add the ravioli to the water and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the ravioli and drain in a colander. Transfer the ravioli to shallow soup bowls. Spoon the sauce over the ravioli and serve.

Steps:

• Sauce:
• Make the pasta dough as directed in the master recipe.
• To make the filling: Combine all the ingredients in a mixing bowl, stirring to incorporate.
• To make the sauce: Put the herbs in a food processor with the green onions, lemon zest, salt, and pepper; pulse to chop it up a bit. Add about 1/4 cup of olive oil and puree it down until smooth and bright green.
• Coat a wide saute pan with a couple of tablespoons of olive oil and place over medium heat. When the oil gets hazy, add the anchovies and mash them up with a wooden spoon so they melt into the oil. Toss in the garlic and stir it around until it just begins to turn golden, not brown. Carefully pour the herb sauce into the anchovy oil, stirring to incorporate. Mix in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper.
• To make the pasta dough: In an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook*, combine the flour and salt. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and continue to mix. Drizzle in 1 tablespoons of the olive oil and continue to incorporate all the flour until it forms a ball. Sprinkle some flour on work surface, knead and fold the dough until elastic and smooth, this should take about 10 minutes. Brush the surface with the remaining olive oil and wrap the dough in plastic wrap; let rest for about 30 minutes to allow the gluten to relax.
• *Alternatively if you don't have an electric mixer: Combine the flour and salt on a flat work surface; shape into a mound and make a well in the center. Add the eggs and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to the well and lightly beat with a fork. Gradually draw in the flour from the inside wall of the well in a circular motion. Use 1 hand for mixing and the other to protect the outer wall. Continue to incorporate all the flour until it forms a ball. Continue as directed above.
• Cut the ball of dough in 1/2, cover and reserve the piece you are not immediately using to prevent it from drying out. Dust the counter and dough with a little flour. Press the dough into a rectangle and roll it through a pasta machine, 2 or 3 times, at widest setting. Pull and stretch the sheet of dough with the palm of your hand as it emerges from the rollers. Reduce the setting and crank the dough through again, 2 or 3 times. Continue tightening until the machine is at the narrowest setting; the dough should be paper-thin, about 1/8-inch thick (you should be able to see your hand through it.). Dust the sheets of dough with flour as needed.
• Beat 1 egg with 1 tablespoon of water to make an egg wash. Dust the counter and sheet of dough with flour, lay out the long sheet of pasta, and brush the top surface with the egg wash, which acts as a glue. Drop tablespoons of your favorite filling on 1/2 of the pasta sheet, about 2-inches apart. Fold the other 1/2 over the filling like a blanket. With an espresso cup or fingers, gently press out air pockets around each mound of filling. Use a sharp knife to cut each pillow into squares and crimp the 4 edges with the tins of a fork to make a tight seal. Dust the ravioli and a sheet pan with cornmeal to prevent the pasta from sticking and lay them out to dry slightly while assembling the rest.
• Cook the ravioli in plenty of boiling salted water for 4 minutes; they'll float to the top when ready, so be careful not to overcrowd the pot. Lift the ravioli from water with a large strainer or slotted spoon. Bathe the ravioli in your favorite sauce to lightly coat and serve.

Steps:

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. (I cooked our veggies in our toaster oven, first on slow bake, heating them only from the bottom, and then on bake, heating them from the top and bottom, for the last 10 minutes or so. If you don't have this setting on your appliance, you may want to cover them with foil for the first 10 minutes.).
• Cut the carrots, tomatoes, pepper and onion. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and spread the veggies evenly. Drizzle the veggies with olive oil and sprinkle with a dash of salt and a dash of pepper.
• Cook the veggies for 10 minutes.
• Whisk the olive oil, water and pesto mixture together in a small saucepan. Heat on medium-high heat and whisk frequently until the pesto begins to boil.
• Put a pot on for the ravioli.
• Has it been 10 minutes yet? Flip the veggies and set the timer for another 10 minutes.
• When the pesto mixture comes to a boil, turn it down and simmer for 5 minutes, whisking often.
• When the water is ready for the ravioli, throw it in the pot. The pesto mixture will begin to thicken as the ravioli cooks.
• After 20-25 minutes total, your veggies, pesto and ravioli should be ready. Drain the ravioli and throw all of the ingredients together in a large bowl. Serve with Parmesan, if desired.
