So today we decided to try and make some homemade ravioli. We brought out the KitchenAid attachment we got years ago but never had used them. We found a pretty standard pasta recipe and used some semolina flour. Kneading for 15 minutes tires out the arms! The roller worked great..

| Can't imagine rolling this by hand! |
So this is what a ball of dough the size of a baseball looks like when its rolled out
 |
| Pretty thin, eh? |
Mom made a very tasty filling made with ricotta, parmesan and mascarpone, a few herbs and some salt and pepper.....yummy!!! We folded the dough over, removed the air and sealed up the ravioli. We picked up a cutter yesterday and sealed things up nicely...

| Getting the air out in important |
Finishing up the raviolis
Ravioli with marinara and parmesan, broccoli and fresh, hot artisan bread. WOW!!
 |
| What a plate! |
We've been experimenting over the last couple of months with some simple yet very tasty bread recipes. Mom has perfected the process and the bread is outstanding.
 |
| You can practically smell this! |
Does this look good or what?
 |
| And only 200 calories!!! Right.... |
Best part is we have extra made up in the freezer...more dinners to come :)
