Creamy Tomato Beef Ravioli with Leafy Green Salad

  1. Dice 1 yellow onion and mince 3 cloves garlic. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 lb ground beef and cook for 6–8 minutes, breaking it up, until browned. Add the diced onion and minced garlic and cook 3 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Stir in 1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes, 1 tsp italian seasoning, and 1 cup heavy cream. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes until slightly thickened.
  4. Meanwhile, cook 1 lb frozen cheese ravioli in the boiling water according to package directions, about 4–5 minutes. Drain and gently fold into the sauce.
  5. Thinly slice 1/2 cucumber. In a large bowl, toss 6 cups mixed salad greens with the sliced cucumber, 1/3 cup pumpkin seeds, 1/2 cup crispy onions, and 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
