Dijon Chicken Stew With Spinach and Ravioli

Submitted by lolablitz

"I have been making Abba Gimel's Dijon Chicken Stew with Kale (#366119) for a year and LOVE it! Last night I made a version that borrowed from her base recipe but was different enough and wonderfully good that I wanted to post it here so I could re-create it. I used homemade stock that I had frozen, but you could also use store-bought for an equally delicious result. I also used Rising Moon Organic Butternut Squash Ravioli, but you could use any flavor ravioli that has a mild or slightly sweet flavoring."
