Roasted Vegetable Salad: Prepare a vibrant salad using a variety of colorful roasted vegetables. Chop vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, eggplant, cherry tomatoes, and red onions into bite-sized pieces. Toss them with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper, then roast in the oven until they are tender and slightly caramelized. Serve the roasted vegetables on a bed of mixed greens and drizzle with a light vinaigrette dressing.

Use a wire rack: After toasting the ravioli, place them on a wire rack instead of a flat surface. This allows air to circulate around the ravioli, preventing them from becoming soggy due to trapped steam. When getting close to serving time preheat your over to 200 degrees F - Warm in the oven: Place them on a baking sheet covered with foil in the preheated oven. The low temperature will keep them warm without causing them to become soggy or overcooked.

Yes you can just be mindful of the serving size. Stick to recommended portions and avoid excessive servings. A typical serving size is around ½ to 1 cup of cooked pasta. Pair pasta with lean protein and pay attention to your hunger and fullness cues. Eat slowly and savor each bite. This can help you feel satisfied with smaller portions and prevent overeating. Additionally, combining pasta with regular physical activity and a healthy lifestyle will optimize your weight loss efforts.

• Preheat the air fryer: It's essential to preheat your air fryer before cooking toasted ravioli. This ensures even cooking and crispiness.
• Use frozen ravioli: Frozen ravioli works best for air frying.
• Lightly coat the ravioli: Spray or brush a light coating of cooking oil on the ravioli. This helps achieve a crispy texture.
• Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket: Arrange the ravioli in a single layer, ensuring they don't touch each other. This allows for proper air circulation and even cooking.
• Shake or flip halfway through: To ensure even browning, shake the air fryer basket or flip the ravioli halfway through the cooking time.
• Keep an eye on them: It's important to monitor the ravioli as they cook. Check for the desired level of crispness, and adjust the cooking time if needed.
• Experiment with seasonings: Before air frying, season the ravioli with your favorite herbs, spices, or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese to add extra flavor.
• Serve with a dipping sauce: Toasted ravioli pairs well with marinara sauce, garlic aioli, or pesto. Prepare a delicious dipping sauce to complement the crispy ravioli.
• Consider breadcrumb variations: For an extra crunch, use panko breadcrumbs or mix breadcrumbs with crushed cornflakes or seasoned cracker crumbs.
• Experiment with different ravioli types: While cheese-filled ravioli is a popular choice, feel free to experiment with various fillings like meat, vegetable, or butternut squash for added variety.
