Instructions

Notes
- Variations: Add protein such as grilled chicken or shrimp for an extra boost. Swap pistachios for walnuts or almonds for a different flavor. Fresh or dried herbs like thyme or rosemary can be added to the sauce for more complexity.
- Storage/Reheating: Leftover ravioli can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a skillet, adding a splash of water or broth if needed.
