Ravioli with Prosciutto, Roma Tomato and Sage

Malriah's Note:

A few weeks ago there was a post on the message boards asking "Of all of your creations, what recipe are you the most proud of?" I want to change my answer to this one!! I had a moment of brillance last night when I started dinner and this recipe is the end result. I really enjoyed eating this and felt like I had created a very simple but extremely tasty dinner. I hope whomever decides to try it enjoys it as much as we did!!

This is great! I subbed 3T of the butter with olive oil because I felt too guilty. It was mild flavored but subtle and yummy! I bet if you wanted to add another layer of flavor you could throw in some gorgonzola too! Thanks for the great recipe!

I made this recipe for a date nearly 6 months ago, using 1 lb each of crab and cheese ravioli. Well, that date is now my boyfriend and he tells me all the time that this meal was how I won him over. :) Super tasty and easy to throw together. Thanks!!

Fantastic! I used light cream and it wasn't such a heavy meal.
