Sundays are a day I like to lounge around the house, unwind, turn off the phone and computer, spend quality time with my family, and occasionally make a special dinner. Having a quiet day is essential to my happiness. I love the idea of Sunday dinner, where you spend a little more time and love making a meal for your family. It is great to do it on a day you don’t have a million places to go, and you can really relax, get creative, have a glass of wine (if you’re like me) and be present.
While I was making homemade pasta and sipping a glass of red wine I felt transported to Italy. A favorite memory came to mind of little Old Italian ladies making pasta at a small rest stop in the country side of Italy. As much as possible, I tried to tune everything out and really enjoy the moment.
The homemade raviolis are delicious, and bursting with love. The bean and artichoke centers make the ravioli both satisfying and filling. I hope you enjoy them as much as we did!
Put your cute apron on and get into a blissful groove.

Using a pastry brush and a small amount of water, slightly dampen the edges of the dough and in-between filling mounds.
Slice pasta dough in-between the filling mounds, and stretch dough around each filling mound, crimping the sides and front with your fingers.
