2 tablespoons butter
2 green onions

2 cups spinach (1/3 bag)
1 tablespoon basil pesto

- Combine water, ravioli, (rinsed) mushrooms, and butter in large saucepan. Cover and bring to boil on high heat. When boiling, remove lid and reduce heat to medium-high. Cook 8–10 minutes, stirring often, until most of liquid is absorbed.
