Homemade Mushroom and Goat Cheese Ravioli made quickly and easily with wonton wrappers.
I was thrilled with the winning ingredients for this month's Crazy Ingredient Challenge: mushrooms and goat cheese. The CIC is a blogging version of Chopped where we are assigned ingredients to make a dish and blog about it. But in our version, no one gets chopped. We all get lots of ideas to make with the ingredients. Be sure to scroll below the recipe to see what everyone else made. And let us know if you'd like to join us next month.
My idea this month was Mushroom and Goat Cheese Ravioli that you can make two different ways.
Ravioli may sound intimidating to make, but with one simple trick hey become ridiculously easy. Instead of making and cutting pasta, use wonton wrappers. I got the idea from How to Cook Without a Book by Pam Anderson.
From start to finish it took me about 30-45 minutes to make both versions. And, I honestly can't say which version I liked better. Both were delicious!!!
Mushroom and Goat Cheese Ravioli
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cup goat cheese with italian seasoning
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ cup sliced mushrooms (canned or fresh mushrooms that have been sauteed)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 Large egg
- 1 packet wonton wrappers
Instructions
- In a medium bowl combine all ingredients except wonton wrappers.
- Spread out wonton wrappers. Put one teaspoon of filling in the center of the wrapper.
- Wet the edges around the filling.
- Place a second wrapper on top and press to seal and remove any air pockets.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Slide ravioli into water gently (approximately 8 at a time). Let boil until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon, boil the remainder of the ravioli. Serve with sauce of your choice.
- For baked appetizers: use one wrapper per piece, placing the filling towards one side and folding in half. Spray with cooking spray or brush with oil and bake at 350 degrees until brown, about 3-4 minues per side.
Until next time, happy eating.

I was really pleased with how fast they were to make. I will be making them like this again soon (sans mushrooms for my guys)

I love the idea of baked ravioli to serve as an appetizer. Genius.
Audrey@That Recipe
The baked wonton was actually my original idea, then I remembered the ravioli trick from the cookbook and did both.
Lauren @ Sew You Think You Can Cook
Why didn't I think of that!? I love using wonton wrappers for my ravioli, too.
Audrey@That Recipe
I am hooked on the idea now.

I've never been a huge fan of mushrooms, but I think I could make an exception for these Ravioli. They look delicious! Thank you for sharing at Merry Monday!
Audrey
Thanks, Amanda. You could easily swap the mushrooms for some ground meat or maybe spinach if that is more to your liking.
Kati
I love mushrooms and goat cheese! These look so amazing. I have never thought of using wonton wrappers for ravioli, but I like it 🙂 Do the baked version turn out crispy? That would be amazing! Thanks for sharing at the Wednesday Showcase.
Audrey
Yes, the baked ones are crispy as if they were fried. Just spray them good (or brush with oil) and toast until your desired level of crispiness.

And you don't even have to tell anyone how easy they are to make.

What a great idea !! I have never tried making Ravioli. This sounds easy and something I can try. #HomeMattersParty
Audrey@That Recipe
I probably wouldn't have tried making them if I hadn't found this easy method.
