Ingredients
- 1 package ravioli You can substitute just about any other pasta for this and add a few drops of green food coloring after draining the pasta along with olive oil for a greenish color, Traditional 5 Cheese Shamrock variety
- ½ cup butter
- 1 handful cotton candy grapes sliced
- 3-4 strawberries cut into hearts
- 1 handful Lucky Charms cereal
Instructions
- Start by cooking raviolis. You will want to cook according to package directions, about 3-4 minutes and be sure to not over boil the raviolis.
- Make the green brown butter sauce; Heat a thick-bottomed skillet on medium heat. Add about a stick of butter (if you slice it, it will melt more evenly) whisking frequently. Continue to cook the butter. You will want to add a drop or two of the green food coloring, if using, to the mix right before the butter starts to foam. Once melted the butter will foam up a bit, then subside and remove immediately from heat. Smell the butter; it should have a nutty aroma when it is done.
- Place cooked raviolis into the main compartment of the lunch box and drizzle the butter over top (you will most likely have leftover brown butter which saves well!) You can choose to add grated parmesan cheese on top.
- Make strawberry heart cut-outs if using. I used 3 large strawberries. Place them along with the cotton candy grapes into one of the side compartments.
- Add Lucky Charms Cereal or your little one’s favorite snack option to the other compartment.
