Toasted Spinach Pesto Ravioli
Report
I made Toasted Spinach Pesto Ravioli, Joanne Tucker's winning recipe of the Appetizers for Any Party category of the 48th Pillsbury Bake-Off® Contest. Crescent dough ravioli, stuffed with a spinach and pesto cream cheese filling, is then covered with panko breadcrumbs and baked for a creamy and crunchy appetizer.

Ingredients
- 1 (9 oz) box spinach frozen, chopped
- 4 oz cream cheese softened (from 8-oz package)
- 4 tablespoons basil pesto (from 7-oz container)
- 3 egg
- 3/4 cup Parmesan Cheese 5 oz, shredded
- 1 (8 oz) can crescent dough sheet or 1 can (8 oz) Pillsbury™ refrigerated crescent dinner rolls, Pillsbury™, refrigerated
- 1-1/2 cups panko bread crumbs from 8-oz box, Progresso™ brand, plain crispy
- 1 cup marinara sauce (from 24-oz jar)
Instructions
- Heat oven to 375°F. Line 2 large cookie sheets with cooking parchment paper, or spray with cooking spray.
- Microwave spinach as directed on box. Drain well; squeeze dry with paper towels.
- In large bowl, beat spinach, cream cheese, 2 tablespoons of the pesto and 1 of the eggs with electric mixer on medium speed about 1 minute or until blended. Add 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese; beat on low speed about 1 minute or until blended.
- Lightly sprinkle work surface with flour. Unroll dough on surface; if using crescent dinner rolls, pinch seams to seal. Press or roll into 15x12-inch rectangle. Using pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut rectangle into 5 rows by 4 rows to make 20 (3-inch) squares.
- Spoon heaping tablespoonfuls spinach mixture in centers of 10 squares. Top with remaining dough squares, stretching dough to cover filling; press edges with fork to seal. Place on 1 of the cookie sheets. For easier handling, refrigerate 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in medium bowl, beat remaining 2 eggs with whisk or fork. In shallow bowl, add bread crumbs. Set aside.
- Dip each ravioli into egg, allowing excess to drip off, then into bread crumbs, coating both sides of ravioli. Place ravioli 1 inch apart on second cookie sheet.
- Top each ravioli with about 1/2 teaspoon of the remaining pesto; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.
- Bake 16 to 18 minutes or until golden brown.
- In small microwavable bowl, cover and microwave marinara sauce 30 to 60 seconds on High or until warm. Serve ravioli with marinara sauce.
