Leprechaun Hats

(Ravioli with Spinach Pesto)

 As St. Patrick's Day is quickly approaching I thought I would share a really fun recipe that I use each year.  The kids think it's really fun and it's super easy to make.  We eat leprechaun hats!  Fun, right?!

Here's what you need:

• 1 lb. package of frozen round ravioli
• 7 Cups fresh baby spinach
• 1 Cup fresh basil
• 1/2 Cup bottled Caesar Parmesan vinaigrette salad dressing
• 4 Tbs. water
• Grated Parmesan cheese

Cook ravioli according to package directions.

For pesto, place remaining ingredients except the Parmesan cheese, in a blender.  Blend until smooth.

Toss ravioli with pesto and top with Parmesan cheese.

My kids love these and what a great way to get them to eat spinach!!  Happy St. Patrick's Day!
