Homemade Wonton Mushroom and Kale Ravioli Recipe

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could make homemade, fresh, gourmet pasta that is also healthy? Well here is one recipe that will get you one step closer to achieving that goal.

Making pasta with wontons will decrease your carb and calorie count and reduce all guilt while eating an entire bowl of delicious homemade pasta.

The best part of ravioli is that there is a special something inside each bite that is also contains delicious pasta and your favorite sauce. Unlike all other pasta’s where the good stuff is the sauce laying on top, ravioli has some of the best insides.

Making ravioli is fun. It’s great for a date night, a fun homemade meal with friends or like me, a cooking night with your sister! Homemade ravioli is the perfect fall meal that is easy to make and will fill you up with no guilt included.

Try it with different fillings, sauces and toppings. I encourage you to be creative, because why not? But here is the recipe I made – mushroom, onion and kale inside and topped with browned butter sauce and a nice big piece of burrata.
