Ravioli with Shrimp Tomato Sauce
I came up with this recipe after I sampled a similar dish when my husband and I went out to dinner to celebrate our 25th anniversary. Now I make it at home often. When I'm not re-creating recipes, I'm busy quilting, crafting and keeping up with our four children and five grandkids.

- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

I had agnolotti in my freezer and wanted to find a recipe I could use it with. I found this recipe, I adapted it a bit and it turned out wonderfully delicious! I substituted the stewed tomatoes with crushed tomatoes. I took uncooked shrimp, chopped it and sauteed in olive oil and garlic. Set it aside in a bowl and added it to the sauce at the end. Why did I chop them? So you get tiny bits of shrimp with every bite. I am so glad I did that because I love the way it became part of the sauce. I didn't have chives so I substituted with chopped basil. I will absolutely continue to make this recipe because I loved it!
My family loves this dish.
Gave this recipe to several friends. It is now a regular. PS: Add 1/4 vodka to the onions and flour for pasta a la vodka twist. very good adult fare
This recipe was good...a nice alternative to ravioli with plain sauce.
This was amazing - great flavor!! I used my own homegrown tomatoes and made an italian sauce with them, other than that left the recipe as is. Will definitely make again. My husband couldn't stop raving about the taste. Oh and since I am on low carb diet I served it over fresh spinach and diced yellow peppers that I had steamed (rather than the pasta).
Excellent! My family love it, even my 7 yr old who is picky about everything. She asked for extra sauce on the side to dip her bread.
Just reviewed this dish and forgot to mention that it is a 5 star dish. I can't get the stars to move forward. Sorry!
Excellent dish. Flavorful and really tasty. Not difficult to make either. Yummy!
Wow! This is fantastic, I can't wait to make it again.
This was so good! It tasted exactly like something you would get at olive garden. I cant wait to make it again for my husband. Thanks so much for sharing this.
