Stacy of Food Lust People Love is hosting Sunday Funday today on her birthday.  Happy Birthday Dear Stacy, may all your wishes come true.

Stacy asked us to help her celebrate with a birthday potluck.  I'm brought pasta. Pasta is always welcome at a potluck.  Let's see what the other brought.......

This is a very rich, decadent pasta dish.  I served it up for Little Christmas with a local Sparkling Wine from Mawby Vineyards.  It is perfect for a Meatless Monday and while it is not diet friendly if you pair it with a big green salad and limit your portion you can still fit it into your eating plan.  And I enjoyed another portion for lunch the next day as well.

This was easy, delicious and clean up was a breeze having used only 1 pan for the whole meal.  I used refrigerated ravioli, if you are using frozen you may need to boil them for a minute or two before adding them to the skillet.

Hope you are having a Funday Sunday.......
