  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Notes

For an extra layer of flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When reheating, add a splash of milk or cream to the pan to prevent the sauce from thickening too much. You can substitute the ingredients based on availability—like using tortellini instead of ravioli or adding other vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms. For a healthier version, consider using Greek yogurt instead of heavy cream or whole wheat ravioli for added fiber.
