Let’s just say that this is one of my favorite pasta recipes for Summer! The squash with lemon zest gives it that freshness that you really want to taste in a pasta dish when it’s hot outside!! It’s got the man seal of approval from Gary and will be made throughout the season no doubt!
What you’ll need:
16 or 18 oz. frozen cheese ravioli (used ricotta and spinach stuffed ravioli)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 shallot – chopped
4-5 squash and zucchini thinly sliced in circles and then cut in half
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 tbsp lemon zest
3/4 cup Parmesan cheese (used asiago and Parmesan)
2 tbsp of chives – chopped
//While your pasta is cooking, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat and add your chopped shallot – stir for 3-4 minutes
//Add in your squash and zucchini with salt and pepper to taste – stir for 4-5 minutes
//Add the cream & lemon zest into the skillet – your cream should start to thicken – timing depends on stove
// Drain pasta and add a little olive oil so it doesn’t stick – then add in your pasta to the skillet with 1/2 the cheese
//Sprinkle chives, add additional cheese, serve and enjoy!
I was a little hesitant with just using cream as the sauce, but it turned out to be so delicious!! What’s your favorite Summer pasta recipe?
This looks soooo good! My husband loves a good ravioli and I love zucchini and lemon so it's a match! Ha!!! I like to make a skillet zucchini medley with mushrooms, yellow squash, onion, eggplant etc and sprinkle with seasonings and fresh parm. It's a nice summer side. I love all the fun things you can create with a bag of ravioli. Yummy! Have a wonderful day!!

Yumm!!! I love that you dressed up regular ravioli into this delicious looking dish!!
This looks amazing!!! I am trying my best to stick to a whole 30 type of diet and it has only been 4 days lol. I needed a little extra push this month before we head to the beach in June! It hasn't been easy as I've been doing cupcake orders lately and everyone else in the house still expects their regular meals lol. xo I will eventually try this though. It looks really good.
This looks amazing and such fresh ingredients. I love it!

YUM! Sounds like such a light, yet satisfying dish for summer that could easily be changed up with whatever veggies you have on hand! Thanks for sharing!
I love pasta year-round but hate when it feels too heavy in warm weather…these lightened up veggies sound like the perfect seasonal flavors!
Yumm! I love cooking with fresh lemon juice or zest and this sounds perfect for summer!
This looks AMAZING! Thanks for the recipe!

Love ravioli! Chris would never eat something with heavy cream though, so I would have to use milk. Looks delicious though lady thanks for sharing!! 🙂
Yum! This looks so delicious. I'm pretty much obsessed with squash these days, so this is right up my alley. We love lemon-flavored pastas around here during the summertime.
So I basically love any type of ravioli and to add the creaminess and zucchini sounds absolutely delicious! Definitely need to give this a try!

This looks absolutely divine Biana!!! I have a love/hate relationship with looking at your recipes (especially during this time after breakfast and before lunch) because they always make me so hungry! xo

Yum, that does sound good and the lemon zest and fresh chives cut through the richness of the sauce. I bet it would be good with peas and asparagus too!
(Side note: is Bloglovin' still not working for you? Mine was super slow to update for a while, like a 24 hour delay. But now it hasn't loaded any of my new content since last Wednesday! And their customer support? Nonexistent.)
