Chef Boyardee beef ravioli, upgraded
The shelf gives you a box of beef ravioli that wants just a few additions to feel like dinner. A beaten egg and butter transform it into something closer to homemade, while fresh garlic and parmesan make it yours.

To buy
- 2 ounces [60 g] Parmesan cheese
From your shelf
- 1 can [425 g] Beef ravioli
Staples
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
- 1 eggs
- Crack one egg into a small bowl and beat it with a fork until combined. Mince two cloves garlic. Heat two tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium-high heat until foaming.
- Pour the can of beef ravioli into the skillet, stirring gently to break up any clumps, and spread it into a single layer. Let it sit without stirring for two minutes, then add the garlic and stir to combine.
- Push the ravioli to the edges of the skillet and pour the beaten egg into the center, stirring constantly until the egg is cooked through and distributed throughout, about one minute. Season with salt and pepper.
- Grate two ounces of Parmesan over the top and fold it in gently. Divide between two bowls and serve at once.
Note Swap the butter for olive oil if you prefer. Leftovers keep in the fridge for one day; reheat gently with a splash of water. Serve with a simple green salad or garlic bread on the side.
