Sage, browned butter, acorn squash – be still my heart. A handful of delicious ingredients combine to make this cozy, cool weather Sage and Brown Butter Ravioli with Acorn Squash. It’s quick enough for a weeknight, but with enough elegance to impress dinner guests.
This dish is the poster child for cool weather coziness. It has so many of the season’s most loved flavors served together in one bowl. And the prep is super simple. Store-bought ravioli is key to keeping this dish fast and simple – most versions cook in boiling water in just a few minutes. These days, it’s super simple to find amazing store-bought ravioli in a variety of flavors. And while almost any flavor would work here, something with squash filling (like this one), would be a great fit.
