Tender ravioli are pretty much good in any form, but they’re especially great when packed with fresh mushroom and creamy cheese. This rendition is “dragged through the garden,” majorly amping up the veggie factor. Yep, this delicious dish is loaded with chopped and ribboned zucchini, diced tomato, and a bevvy of Italian herbs and spices. It’s taken to the next level with a creamy lemon sauce, nutty Parmesan, and a sprinkle of scallion greens. Be still, our pasta-loving hearts…

Cooking Steps
• Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry all produce. • Trim ends from zucchini; shave zucchini lengthwise into thin ribbons using a peeler, rotating as you go. Stop once you get to the seedy core; finely chop core. Dice tomato. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Zest and quarter lemon.
• Once water is boiling, gently add ravioli to pot. Immediately reduce to a low simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente and floating to the top, 4-5 minutes. • Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water, then drain. TIP: Gently shake strainer with ravioli in it to remove as much moisture as possible.
• Meanwhile, heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chopped zucchini, tomato, scallion whites, and 1 tsp Italian Seasoning (2 tsp for 4 servings). (Use the rest of the Italian Seasoning as you like.) Cook until veggies are just softened, 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Reduce heat under pan with veggies to medium, then stir in stock concentrate, a squeeze of lemon juice, and ¼ cup reserved pasta cooking water (1/3 cup for 4 servings). Reduce heat to low and cook for 1-2 minutes. • Stir in sour cream and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4). Season with salt and pepper. TIP: If needed, stir in more pasta cooking water a splash at a time until sauce reaches a creamy consistency.
• Separate zucchini ribbons with your hands, then stir into pan with sauce. • Carefully stir in drained ravioli. Simmer until sauce is thickened, 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add lemon zest to taste.
• Divide ravioli mixture between bowls. Garnish with scallion greens and Parmesan. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.

Reviews from our home cooks
The sauce is amazing. The combination of mushroom, lemon, and tomatoes provide a delicious spring taste. Only difficulty is determining how long the zucchini strips need to cook. The ravioli is perfect with this sauce.
Great meal! It felt filling - flavors blended well and I love the details of the lemon zest & zucchini strips. One neat add would be actual mushrooms too - but the mushroom stuffed ravioli was delicious!
The ravioli looks nice and tastes great, too. The lemon provided some zing while the zucchini ribbons added freshness. We really enjoyed this recipe, and have already replicated the sauce for other dishes.
This recipe was very easy. I like the zucchini ribbons, they added a nice crunch to the dish. The cream sauce complimented the dish well. I will say that you should really like mushrooms to enjoy this recipe.
The preparation for this dish was a bit awkward. Trying to stir the zucchini ribbons was too hard. Flopping them around splattered sauce everywhere and was hard to plate. I ended up taking them out and lightly steaming them to finish - then plating the ravioli on top. Flavor of the dish was very good.
This can be made as a one-pot meal, which is great for those of us who are kitchen-deprived. Cook the pasta first in medium pot, save small amount of liquid, drain rest in colander. Rinse out medium pot, then heat up the oil and start veggies and sauce in same pot. Add cooked ravioli and zucchini strips, finish rest in the medium pot. Love this recipe and will try again! The lemon adds so much, and I added chopped fresh basil from my garden just because I had it. Didn't need much reserved pasta water though, less than 1/4 cup.
Quick and delicious. The sauce is a nice improvement to traditional tomato heavy marinara. The zucchini ribbons are a nice and surprising touch. I discarded the first peel which is mostly green skin and used the ones with white middles and green edges.
"Get this one again!" Everyone loved this recipe. The lemon added a great dimension to the flavor of the sauce. I was skeptical of the zucchini ribbons but they added necessary substance and a nice texture. Only complaint was that there was not enough food for the four of us.
This is delicious! The mushroom pasta combined with lemon juice is a unique and yummy taste. This dish is my second favorite-the Bavette Steak comes in first place but Mushroom Ravioli is a very close second.
The sauce, especially with the fresh lemon, was very good! The mushroom stock made it very flavorful, and I loved the zucchini and how it was used twice in the dish. It didn't make great leftovers, though.
