The dough

• 2 eggs (can use egg substitute)

Made this for dinner last night. We didn't think the filling was very flavorful--it came across kind of bland. Served with light tomato vodka sauce on top (#81281), which was very nice. I'd probably try a different filling next time. The dough recipe was good.

This was very good....I used my KitchenAid Ravioli maker for the first time using this recipe. I used the suggested Alfredo Sauce. Thanks for sharing.

I am SO glad that I finally made this. The instructions were so clear and concise! I actually enjoyed making homemade pasta (the first time was a disaster!). I will definitely use this recipe again and again. Thanks so much for this experience!
