Lean Cuisine Cheese Ravioli

Lean Cuisine describes their cheese ravioli frozen dinner as, "delicate ravioli stuffed with Ricotta, Mozzarella, Parmesan and Romano cheeses, then topped with a robust tomato sauce accented with basil, onion and garlic." I liked it, and my own experience of ravioli has been limited to the canned kind, which I am not very fond of.

The Lean Cuisine cheese ravioli is a smaller portion size, so I would eat it for lunch, but there is no way this could fill me up for dinner. The tomato sauce in the Lean Cuisine meal has chunks of tomato in it, but doesn't really have a strong tomato taste. I like it, but I can understand that if you were expecting a "robust" sauce, you might be a bit disappointed by this light version. The ravioloi is stuffed with 4 different types of cheeses, and none of the types have a very strong distinct flavor, but all together, they were very creamy and just simply light and delicious. This meal was just simple and uncomplicated - and that's what I liked about it.

One serving of Lean Cuisine Cheese Ravioli is 240 calories, 6 grams of total fat which is 9% of the daily requirement and 3.5 grams of saturated fat (16%). There is 25% of the daily requirement of sodium (600 mg), 11 grams of protein and 36 grams of total carbohydrates which includes 3 grams (12%) of fiber and 10 grams of sugars. 5 WeightWatchers points if you are counting.

I really liked this meal and would definitely take it to work for my lunch. For dinner it's simply too small a portion.

Yes, I've tried this and like it, too! It's small, but if you throw in a side green salad, it'll be filling at dinnertime. (I live on my own, so I love finding easy single meals like this.)
