A New Find for Valentine’s Day
As the day of love approaches, all of our favorite brands are competing for the title of loveliest Valentine’s Day treat. From Reese’s bouquets and festive Oreos to Lava Cake Kisses and pretty, pink Starbursts, the competition’s tight. Costco is the next contender in this showdown, bringing us heart-shaped ravioli that has us all saying, “aww.” The two-color ravioli were first spotted in-store by an Instagram account called Costco Buys.
Here are some more heart-shaped Valentine’s Day dishes.
More About the Ravioli
The Costco holiday pasta is more than decorative. Stuffed inside the heart-shaped ravioli are four mouthwatering cheeses: creamy ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan and aged asiago. It’s also pretty cost-efficient, priced at roughly $10 for two 20 oz. packages. If you’re looking to cook your sweetheart a budget-friendly Valentine’s Day dinner, this is definitely the way to go. Frame these heart-shaped ravioli with some tasteful made-at-home decorations, and you’ve got a romantic night to remember.
You won’t be seeing Sweethearts candy this Valentine’s Day. Here’s why.
Here’s What to Do With Your Ravioli
It sadly doesn’t look like Costco’s heart-shaped ravioli come with any custom sauce. However, you can always kick up that standard ravioli recipe to suit your partner’s taste. Use one of our homemade pasta sauce recipes to help roll out a romantic dinner.
