Refrigerated pasta is a great shortcut ingredient to keep on hand. It cooks in mere minutes and can be tossed with a quick sauce for an easy, fuss-free meal.

Ingredient notes
- Pasta - Refrigerated pasta adds ease to this quick-cooking recipe. I used four-cheese ravioli, but any variety of ravioli or tortellini can be used. If using frozen pasta, allow a few extra minutes of cooking time.
- Sun-dried tomatoes add intense tomato flavor. Be sure to use oil-packed tomatoes - the oil provides tremendous flavor to the tomatoes and it is also a key component of the sauce. I love Mezzetta Julienne cut sun-ripened dried tomatoes for their incredible flavor and texture.
Step-by-Step Instructions
See the recipe card for complete instructions and ingredient amounts.
- Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Meanwhile, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with olive oil and the oil from the sun-dried tomatoes. Add the sliced shallots and sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet.
- Cook for 4-5 minutes until the shallots are soft and translucent.
- Add the ravioli and toss to combine. Serve.
Serving ideas and variations
- For hearty appetites, stir in sautéed shrimp or cooked chicken or sausage.
- Add artichoke hearts or olives to the shallots and tomatoes.
- Serve with ciabatta garlic bread and a green salad with balsamic dressing.
