When Shyam and Ami were visiting us last week, we decided to cook up an Italian feast! Shyam made some incredible ravioli FROM SCRATCH! He made the pasta dough, rolled it out in his pasta roller, made the creamy mushroom filling, and made the rich cream sauce! I will have to get the recipe from him and try it myself (after I get a pasta roller!), but I did help out by making some bruschetta! I used the delicious baby tomatoes that was in my CSA box to make the topping for the bruschetta, and it was so easy and tasty that I will definitely be making it again! I made the bread that we used for the bruschetta from scratch in my bread machine. It was so nice to have such a fresh meal!
Here are some pics of the incredible ravioli:
