November peas…a simple supper

Unbelievably, my little urban-suburban garden is still producing peas, lettuces and a few last tomatoes. I sowed another batch of peas and lettuces mid-September, and the tomatoes are just not quitting. With that in mind, I decided to make a super-simple meal of probably the last of my autumn crops.


My Novemember crop of peas

I made a package of the Gluten Free cheese ravioli that I bought from Conte’s Pasta. I gently sautéed a few tomatoes and halved peas in a first cold press fruity Olive oil with chopped shallots and garlic.


After the ravioli are cooked through and drained, I topped them with this very simple sauce. I finished my dish with a bit of freshly grated ParmesanoReggiano and a few stings of fresh Mozzerella. A very quick and easy-peasy meal with the last harvest from my urban-suburban garden.

I can't say enough about Conte’s Gluten Free ravioli. I haven’t had ravioli since before I was diagnosed and these were delicious and you would never guess that they were gluten-free.

Conte’s Pasta Company is truly a premier manufacturer of gluten-free ravioli, pierogie, gnocchi, stuffed shells, pasta, and pizza shells. The believe that everyone should be able to enjoy pastas. Believe me, these are the best gluten-free pastas that I have yet to enjoy.

I liked this post for its simplicty. The peas look very tasty. I was particulary drawn to the books about olives too. I recall reading one a while ago about an author's search for the oldest olive tree in the world. I will try and dig it out for you - the book not the tree. lol

You've done well! Lazy me, I did not plant a fall crop even though the weather failed to deliver its ususal stifling heat. This dish looks amazing!

How awesome that you are still having tomatoes--I'm jealous because I could never grow a one! The dish looks yummy as always--you are so ambitious.
