Portobello Mushroom Ravioli with Roasted Garlic and Basil Marinara

Portobello Mushroom Ravioli with Roasted Garlic and Basil Marinara

My husband was telling our friends the other day that he LOVES a simple marinara sauce so I decided to make a simple roasted garlic and basil marinara for him. I used a bunch of the tomatoes, my generous neighbor, Jack just gave us and roasted them along with onions, garlic, and seasonings. After I blended the roasted veggies, I let the sauce simmer for 2 hours before using it on top of some ravioli. My husband was a happy man and so were the rest of us. The sauce was AMAZING, I am certain it was because Jack’s tomatoes are so delicious (thanks for sharing Jack). The portobello mushroom ravioli from Trader Joe’s was so good – we really loved it with this simple and tasty marinara sauce.

Quarter the tomatoes, cut the onions, and break up the head of garlic (KEEP SKINS ON SO THEY DON’T BURN). Spread the tomatoes, onions, and garlic all over the lined baking sheet.

    1. Susana,

      I store any remaining sauce in freezer zip lock bags then put them in the freezer. I hope this helps.

      Cheers,

  1. About how much sauce does this make?? I’m going to make your lasagna and wanted to make the sauce for it instead of jarred. Thanks!

    1. I just sprinkled some on the tomatoes and onions before roasting. I did not measure them.

      Sprinkle them on the veggies, to taste, then roast. Once you blend the veggies into the sauce, taste and re-season if needed.
