Over the holidays I had the opportunity to host some very special friends for dinner. I searched my recipes for something that would be equally special, and came across this recipe for Pumpkin Ravioli with Gorgonzola Sauce. The ravioli are actually made with wonton wrappers, which were a little difficult to work with, but overall I was very pleased. They didn't end up looking quite how I wanted them to (or how the recipe portrays them), but I thought they were delicious. I paired the ravioli with an Italian salad and breadsticks from a local Italian deli.
For dessert I served Toffee Cheesecake Bars from Taste of Home.
I was nervous to cook for people other than my husband and the cats (who insist Mommy is the best cook they know), but I had a great time and am really glad I did. Maybe it will give me the confidence to entertain more often!
Friends for 15 years. :)
