This quick recipe includes a few of my favorites: CHEESE, sausage and PLENTY of garlic. I made this recipe pretty basic and plain for our family due to picky eaters. However, feel free to throw in some additional vegetables (spinach, mushrooms). Also, there is a large variety of Ravioli types. Feel free to experiment!
