first i chopped up fresh spinach. this took the longest, but fresh spinach turns out to be SO much better than the frozen stuff.
it chops rather nicely if you stack the leaves up on top of each other, about 20 leaves at a time.
the recipe said baby spinach
and artichoke hearts.
they're so gross to cut up, but taste good.
add in a little pesto
mix the broth with the alfredo sauce
a bag of frozen ravioli
a layer of alfredo sauce, then a layer of the spinach artichoke mix
then spread out half the ravioli
more sauce. then another layer of spinach artichoke and another layer of ravioli, and the rest of the sauce.
after baking the allotted time, then top with cheese and put under the broiler for a few minutes
its only two layers of ravioli deep. but its good stuff!
theres this awesome stuff called pan lining paper. its aluminum foil on one side and parchment paper on the other. i lined the cake pan with it and when its empty i just throw it away and the pan is clean. i like this stuff! (careful under the broiler though). they sell it in the stores next to aluminum foil and parchment paper. its seriously awesome.
