View ProfileChef Dustin's Italian comfort cooking is just as good as Nonna's cucina. Tender ravioli are stuffed with a four cheese blend then tossed in a fire-roasted tomato sauce that's enhanced with roasted eggplant, squash, zucchini, and bell pepper, and broccoli rabe. Studded with tiny mozzarella balls and fresh basil, this dish is light and fresh, yet totally satisfying.
