Toasted Ravioli.

Made this tasty dinner on Sunday night and it was easy, tasty, quick and delicious. Sten and I had just come home from MI, it was a little chilly and I wanted to cook a Sunday dinner. I sprawled all my recipes on the floor, looked through 3 different cookbooks before I stumbled upon this gem. And I am sooo glad I did. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
Rachel Ray's 2,4,6,8 cookbook. Its like when you bread chicken... only you bread the ravioli-- healthy-right?!
toast 'em up! Every time I try to fry something the kitchen starts smoking and the fire alarm sounds. Sten usually ends up rushing to the smoke detector and rapidly fanning it with a Seminary book.
Enjoy! Bread, olive oil, wine and a candle. Hello perfect evening!

Toast Ravioli. Adapted from Rachel Ray!
  • 2 eggs, a splash of milk, salt and pepper
  • 1 1/2 C Panko bread crumbs, sprinkle of parmesan cheese, italian spices, fresh parsley (chopped)
  • 12 Large fresh Ravioli, (we had roasted chicken and mozz)
  • EVOO
  • 3 garlic cloves (finely chopped)
  • pinch of red pepper flakes
  • 14 oz can crushed tomatoes
  • handful of fresh basil
  1. beat the eggs and the splash of milk in a shallow dish and season with s and p. combine the bread crumbs with the cheese and parsley in a second dish. Dip the fresh ravioli in the eggs, then coat with bread crumbs. heat EVOO over medium heat in a large skillet, then toast the ravioli until deep golden- 3-4 mins.
  2. in a small sauce pot, heat EVOO with garlic and red pepper flakes over medium low heat. stir in the tomatoes and season the sauce with salt and pepper. Heat through.
  3. transfer the sauce to a small bowl. Surround the sauce with the toasted ravioli for dipping or cover the ravioli with the sauce and garnish with the basil.
YUMMM! Enjoy!
xoxo.

back 2 school. back at it. back to reality 2026

We eeeked out every last drop until it was time to head back to school on Wednesday. Annual tradition trip to Lucette after Meet the Teacher is the photo above. Happy to report that everyone did great the first 3 days of school- although I don't know if we're quite ready for a full 5 day week starting tomorrow :) Sten took the boys to Michigan to go to his cousins daughters wedding and they did something that Sten introduced me to when we were dating and on staff together at PLCBC- diving for golf balls! The boys thought it was a blast and I love that they got a bright blue -sunny -skies day to make the water look turquoise and the ball finding easy. While the boys were gone Lucy and I whooped it up! We went to the first Hudson football game... Went to the Glenwood City Rodeo.... AND drove to Iowa to see Josiah Queen at the Iowa State Fair!  Fun is an understatement to describe this little getaway and I feel so lucky we got to do this together. Then it was BACK TO REALITY! holy...

bookends/ teacher things/fall poem

The bookends of my day yesterday was God's way of showing me that I am going to be ok. This picture from my solo run in the morning was absolutely perfect. Cold hands, fast road miles, worship music and a text from a friend right in the middle of it saying that I was top of her prayer list that morning. Then in the evening the boys were outside playing waffle ball and Lucy was walking around the neighborhood with friends and I cranked up my music and cleaned the entire middle/lower level. I stopped at one point and thought-- this is the biggest gift right now.  Other things: I love pens. and there is something so satisfying about having every single color of felt tip/ gel tip at your disposal. lol. Life touch teacher photos--why is my ear showing so much? Is this what I always look like? Haley hosted the Badland Babes for some brunch after our Willow run on Saturday and she made THE most delicious food, didn't know I needed a bonfire until I was sitting in this chair eating thi...

Merry Christmas 2022

I am in complete denial that an entire year has passed! Where did 2022 go?! We celebrated some big milestones, had a lot of fun, and enjoyed our family most. Here are some highlights and lessons learned from 2022.  So. Much. Swimming! Lesson learned: ALWAYS get in the water. You’ll never regret it. Your kids will love you for it and you’ll make way more memories from inside the water than up on the boat. This day was particularly special as we were all together with Uncle Dan and Aunt Pam. We swam, we ate, we boated and we didn’t want the day to end. Having mom and dad move permanently to the Lake has been the BEST.  Midcurrent MOVED! We raised the money, hired the people, decorated and paved the way for more people to get to know Jesus. Before the carpet was laid we wrote prayers on the floor and I am so excited to see what 2023 will bring for Midcurrent. Lesson learned: do the big thing! Give people a chance to show up and see what God can do! Family camp is ALWAYS a highlig...
