There is enough filling for about 30 large ravioli but it will depend on how much filling you are using for each ravioli

It is important to squeeze out as much excess moisture from the  cooked  spinach before using or you will run the risk of a watery filling

Plan a day in advance, the ricotta cheese needs to be drained in the refrigerator overnight, creamed cottage cheese or dry cottage cheese is not recommended

INGREDIENTS:

1 (15-ounce) container full-fat ricotta cheese, drained (place the ricotta cheese in a fine strainer and allow to drain in the fridge overnight)

1 cup finely shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg (can use more)

1 small garlic clove minced (you can increase to another small clove, I recommend keeping the garlic no more than 2 cloves or it will overpower the other ingredients)

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste

1 pound fresh baby spinach leaves (cooked, hand-squeezed very dry, then finely chopped

1 large egg, lightly beaten

salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

INSTRUCTIONS:———————————————

In a bowl mix the first 8 ingredients together until well combined.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Place about 1 tablespoon (or amount desired) of the filling into ravioli dough pockets.
