I agree - I love making ravioli now - don't think I could buy them again. I love how delicate they seem by using the wonton wrappers.

delicate is a great word to describe the wrappers.

i didn't have a chance until wed to make the turkey/cranberry ravioli and the combination (i modified some towards yours) was very tasty - the little bit of cranberry goes a LONG way. my freezer has a second meals worth..LOL

the wrappers can be modified to any type of ravioli - going to start experimenting...

Renee - I totally know what you mean about ice cream - there are times when there is no problem and others where the slightest bite just won't go down - go figure and sometimes I know it is probably a good thing.

San Diego mom,

here is the recp. kcmagu and i have been playing around with:

Turkey and Cranberry Ravioli Recipe : Giada De Laurentiis : food Network

the ravioli part is wonton wrappers. they are very easy to work with and much lighter than regular Pasta.

i think you can make any type of ravioli w/these~

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
