SPINACH CHEESE RAVIOLI

Makes 4 servings
Ingredients • 1 Italian turkey sausage, casing removed and crumbled (about 1/3-1/2 cup) • 1/2 cup frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry • 1/3 cup fat-free ricotta cheese • 1 cup (4 ounces) grated Cabot 75% or 50% Reduced Fat Sharp Cheddar, divided • 1/4 teaspoon salt • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper • 1 small garlic clove, minced • 32 wonton wrappers • 2 cups marinara sauce
Directions 1. Cook sausage in small skillet over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes or until browned. Combine sausage, spinach, ricotta, 1/2 cup of cheddar, salt, pepper and garlic, mixing well.
2. Working with 2 wonton wrappers at a time (cover remaining wrappers with damp towel to keep from drying out if needed), spoon about 1 tablespoon of spinach filling onto center of one wrapper. Moisten edges of both wrappers with water; place second wrapper over filling. Pinch 4 edges together or use back of fork to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
3. Working in batches, gently lower wonton ravioli into lightly boiling water. Cook for 2 minutes or until tender; drain well.
4. Warm marinara sauce in microwave until hot; spoon evenly over ravioli and top with remaining cheese.
