Category: Noodles / Pasta
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1 tsp canola oil
2 cups sliced mushrooms
1 small sweet red pepper, cut into 2-inch-long strips
4 cups broccoli flowerets
1 cup packed baby spinach leaves
1/4 cup pine nuts
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
2 (9 oz) pkg light four-cheese ravioli

Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms to skillet and cook 3 minutes. Add red pepper, broccoli and 1/3 cup water to skillet, cover and cook 4 minutes or until broccoli is crisp-tender. Remove lid and cook another 1 minute or until water has evaporated. Using tongs, remove 1 cup of broccoli from skillet and set aside. Remove skillet from heat and cover.

In a food processor, combine reserved broccoli, spinach, pine nuts, Parmesan, olive oil, salt and black pepper. Pulse until blended and smooth; set aside.
Meanwhile, cook pasta according to pkg directions. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup water, and return the pasta to the pot. Stir the mushroom mixture into the pasta pot with 1/2 cup pesto, adding the reserved pasta water if necessary to thin the sauce. Refrigerate unused sauce for up to 1 week.
