Butternut Squash Ravioli

Every year as the leaves turn and the air gets cooler, I look forward to butternut squash ravioli. I've been making this Bon Appetit version, Ravioli with Herbed Walnut Sauce, for nearly a decade and it is delicious.
This dish can be made start to finish in less than 30 minutes and is great for easy entertaining. I buy premade ravioli (yes, you can make your own but it's a lot of work and probably best reserved for special occasions) at Pasta and Co. but you can find them just about any where.

Don't cut back on the butter or substitute with olive oil or chicken stock - I've tried to make this dish healthier and it really makes it from a hit to a miss. Just save this dish for a day you've been out raking leaves, on a hike or when you are feeling particularly trim!
