LA PASTA, INC.
Beet, Butternut Squash & Goat Cheese Ravioli
THE BOLD FLAVORS OF BEETS, BUTTERNUT SQUASH, AND GOAT
CHEESE are expertly teased together to create La Pasta's savory, all-natural
ravioli. "We are constantly playing around with hot or trendy ingredients,
particularly healthy ones," explains Emily Buckley, sales and marketing
manager for La Pasta. "Our chef came up with this combination and it really
was great from the start."
The ravioli filling is perfected with fresh chives and a pinch of sea salt
and wrapped in a thin, delicate dough. By happy accident, the fresh beet in
the filling bled into the dough, giving the pasta its distinctive pink color.
"We are not a small artisanal pasta manufacturer anymore, but we
produce products like we are," she says. "Despite our recent growth, we
make a conscious effort not to cut food costs, and you can really taste that
in our products." Suggested retail price: $5.99/9 ounces. Contact: Emily
