To complement the ravioli dish, I had hubby grill 3 zucchinis and 3 yellow squash that I brushed with olive oil that I seasoned with Italian seasoning, sea salt and pepper. I sliced them and set them aside. I diced a red bell pepper and an orange bell pepper and sauteed them in olive oil until they were tender and then added about 1 cup of halved fresh Cherubs (little red oblong cherry tomatoes) to the peppers and sauteed just until they were heated through. In another pan I added a jar of Del Grosso's "Uncle Fred's Fireworks Sauce" which is a spicy and very flavorful sauce, and heated until heated through. I then added about 1/3 cup of half-n-half to the sauce which slightly blunts some of the spice and gives the sauce a nice creamy finish and smoothness. I mixed the sauce with the cooked red and orange bell peppers and tomatoes. I arranged the 2 kinds of ravioli over a small pool of sauce on a plate. I then spooned the sliced grilled zucchini and yellow squash on top of the ravioli and topped with more sauce and fresh sliced basil. It was absolutely delicious! We enjoyed crusty hot multigrain baguette bread with our meal. It honestly tasted better than any meal I've ever had at even the nicest of Italian restaurants. The grilled fresh veggies and spicy delicate sauce really complemented the mixture of these two flavors of ravioli. Everything went well together. I snapped a few pics for you to see below. It was as beautiful as it was delicious. I will definitely recreate this one again!
