Equipment

Storage

Reheat - Use an oven to reheat the butternut squash ravioli with sauce. Cover the pan with the pasta and bake at 350 degrees until heated through. Low-temperature cooking is key. I do not recommend freezing the cooked pasta dish, but the ravioli itself can be frozen after purchase in its original packaging for up to 3 months.
