The days leading up to Halloween should include ghosts and ravioli—nothing less! I wanted these ravioli to be easy and delicious, so I kept things simple. The filling is made of ricotta, Parmesan, and finely chopped pear. And guess what? We’re using wonton wrappers, which make the whole process much easier than making dough from scratch. Typically, there are about 51 wrappers in a standard 12-ounce package of wontons. I know, it’s a strange number, but adjust the filling if you find different brands.
