- 1 (20 oz) package cheese ravioli (fresh or frozen)
 
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
 
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
 
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes (in oil), thinly sliced
 
- 2 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
 
- 1 cup heavy cream
 
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
 
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
 
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
 
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
 
		 
	 
	
		
		
			
- Cook ravioli according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
 
- In a large skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
 
- Stir in sun-dried tomatoes and cook for 2–3 minutes, allowing them to soften and release their flavor.
 
- Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in Parmesan, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
 
- Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 1–2 minutes.
 
- Gently fold in the cooked ravioli and toss to coat in the creamy sauce.
 
- Let everything simmer together for 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and clings to the pasta.
 
- Serve hot, garnished with more Parmesan and fresh herbs if desired.
