When I think back on over 20 years ago and how things have changed and how I have changed, I often wonder how did I do it?

I certainly couldn’t converse in Italian, I missed my family and friends and don’t forget not a mall in site! Of course over the years everything has changed, my Italian has improved, I still miss my family and friends and malls are in site.

One thing that drew me into this beautiful but unfortunately badly run country was and is the food. Is there another country on earth that appreciates food as much as this one?

Italians discuss food anytime and all the time, especially when they are eating!

At least once a day whether it is lunch or dinner, food and conversation must be shared at least for an hour or two. So when you have the time for a relaxing lunch or dinner this is the perfect sauce for you.

This Easy Tomato Cream Sauce for Ravioli is so easy to make adding a little cream to the thickened sauce makes a delicious sauce perfect.

I was served Ricotta and Spinach stuffed Ravioli with this amazing tomato cream sauce by my sister-in-law. This was the first meal I was served on my arrival in Italy and it has become one of my favourites.

It has a wonderful soft creamy taste thanks to the simmering of the carrot and celery. The carrot and celery pieces are delicious and may be served with the pasta, my kids actually fight over the last piece! Easy Tomato Cream Sauce is fast and easy and so yummy!

Easy Tomato Cream Sauce for Ravioli can be served with homemade ravioli, your favourite store-bought ravioli or even normal pasta of choice. Whichever you choose as the Italian says “take your time, relax”. Buon Appetito!

      We’ll be visiting Italy again later this summer and I can’t wait — I understand why you love it so much there! I agree that it’s so much more than just food — it’s the food culture and the appreciation Italians have for meals and sharing those meals with the people they care about that makes it such a special place.

          We’ll be going back to Salo on Lake Garda – we spent a few days there a few years ago and fell in love with it. Going back for a week this time!

      Rose–this looks really good, however, I have a couple of questions. You said to quarter the carrot and the celery. You mentioned adding the carrot to the pot, but not the celery. And what do you do with them after the sauce is cooked? Serve them along side ;the pasta or throw them out?

        Hi Diane, you are absolutely right I forgot to mention the celery, add the celery to the pot and I serve the carrot and celery to whoever would like it, actually my kids fight over the last piece! (btw updated the missing info, thanks again Diane) have a great day.
