What sauce can I make for ravioli?

Question

I am making chicken and cheese filled ravioli tonight and we do not have any canned sauces. I would like to avoid buying one if I can. Do you have any recipes for sauces that will go well with this dish?

Thank you(:

Answer 1

I think a pesto would go well with that.

Answer 3

Either a tomato based marinara or a light cheese/cream sauce would taste great over ravioli.

Answer 4

Check out www.cooks.com for a whole bunch of usable recipes.  These have all been submitted by normal cooks who like them.  They have a good search box.  Type in "ravioli sauces" or the name of a particular sauce and you'll find plenty.

Myself, I usually use a yoghurt base (plain yoghurt, of course) and add grated cheeses to it once the yoghurt melts.  Stir a little flour into the yoghurt as you're stirring it to melt it.  Then add 2 or 3 nice cheeses, grated.  Thicken or thin as needed with a little extra flour or some milk or water.  Season to taste with onion powder, garlic, salt, and pepper.

Answer 5

If you have canned tomatoes, you can simmer them with some herbs (oregano, rosemary, basil, garlic);  then add a little olive oil and toss with the ravioli ......If not, then just saute some garlic & onions, with the herbs, in olive oil and use that.....
