Zesty Ravioli Skillet

So I posted yesterday about my recipe desaster.  Hubby asked me to "make that ravioli thing for dinner that had spinach and was kinda spicy".  After much searching I found the recipe in one of my beloved Pampered Chef Seasons Best Cookbooks.   It yet again turned out delicious.  This is definately going to be a more regular dish on our table.   There was even enough for us to have for lunch today *bonus!*.
