Today was Dr. P's first day at his new job. I woke up early to pack lunch for him. How nice of me! haha....
I made ravioli wih marinara sauce and green beans with toasted almond. It only took me about 15 minutes to make it.
I bought all the ingredients from Fresh & Easy. The ravioli I bought was spinach and ricotta cheese. I really like their ravioli. It tasted fresh, and it was only $2.99. Here was what I did:
(1) Cook ravioli in boiling water for about 8~10 minutes.
(2) While the pasta is cooking, cook frozen green beans in microwave for about 4 minutes.
(3) Toast almond slices on a frying pan for a few minutes.
(4) Heat the marinara sauce in a small sauce pan.
(5) Add ravioli to the marinara sauce and mix.
(6) Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top of ravioli.
(7) Mix green beans and toasted almond.
Cost:
Sliced Almond $2.49 (used 2 tablespoon ~ $0.20)
Ravioli $2.99
Green beans $0.89 (used 1/3 bag ~ $0.30)
Parmesan Cheese $1.99 (used 1/4 cup ~ $0.50)
Marinara sauce $2.99 - pantry item (used 1/3 jar ~ $1.00)
Total $2.50 per serving
I made a plate for myself, too. This was so easy to make. Well, I didn't exactly "make" anything. The ravioli was pre-made. Marinara sauce was pre-made. I pretty much just put everything together. That's all. It was good though. Also cheap and easy.
Then I went to school. Dr. P texted me after his lunch and said it was delicious. ^^
