The basic version of Pesto Ravioli has been in my cookbook so long I’m not even sure where it came from. A quick internet search brought up the likely source: Betty Crocker. As always, I took some slight liberties…but not many. This recipe is fabulous not just because it tastes great, but because it’s easy.  Amazingly easy. It’s a great go-to on a busy night. Plus, with chicken, veggies, and pasta, you don’t need a side dish!

A little side story: my husband doesn’t cook. My mom came down to visit once when I was in the hospital. Obviously, I wasn’t available to cook. But husband looked through the cookbook and made this. So…not only can people who can’t cook manage this, but it’s mom-approved!

If you’re looking for more ridiculously easy dishes, you might be interested in:

• BBQ Country-Style Ribs 
• Sweet and Spicy Pork Chops

If you haven’t cooked with pesto before, here is the brand I use: Classico Basil Pesto (the link is from Amazon; it is an affiliate link, you won’t be charged anything extra if you order).
