Ravioli on Toast.

[ladymalfoy]

It’s wrong isn’t it? My DH thinks it’s a Good Thing. The tinned stuff in sauce. Not the lovely Buitoni type with the mince in the sauce ( which should be enjoyed in a bowl with a shake of Tabasco) but the Heinz stuff. I like it on its own. He insists on toast. Grim ?

Oh yes with cheese and black pepper.

Yum, with cheese
Not had that for ages

I've just added some to my waitrose order. I hope it doesn't get substituted.

It’s sort of no different to lasagna on garlic bread just a bit cheaper!!

Now I understand.

Heinz told me they were prioritising manufacture of popular items, hence why they had stopped spaghetti bolognese but were continuing with things like ravioli. And I thought "Why, who likes tinned ravioli?"

Now I know. It's Mumsnetters. (Except me.)

AMAZING actual food of the gods. On toast with butter and cheese. Same with tinned spaghetti. My guilty pleasure lunch

Hadn’t had ravioli for 30 years when I was a student will add a tin to my next shop. On buttered toast sounds good

It's supposed to be on toast. It's an old fashioned non Italian pasta tradition.

It's revolting, I didn't know they still sold it.

I wish you could still get Findus type fishcakes with more potato and hardly any fish in, I did like those with beans cheese and pickled cauliflower as a child

I would put that in the category of food to have when you are poorly bad, same as Heinz Tomato Soup and Spaghetti Hoops. Back of the pantry gathering dust in the meantime.

My guilty pleasure same as Heinz maccaroni cheese.

YY to Heinz spaghetti on toast with a nice strong cheddar underneath the spaghetti so it goes all melty.

To be fair, Venus Tiger, it's not really pasta, at least not as recognisable to any Italian

I've been craving this since lockdown began but haven't been able to get tinned ravioli in our local sainsbury's yet (clearly snapped up by MNetters). You've got to have it on thickly buttered toast with a few splashes of worcestershire sauce, grated cheese and loads and loads of pepper on top. Then you cut squares of the toast and mash the ravioli into the bread. One of my best ever dirty foods.

Unfortunately I married an Italian and he takes his food pretty seriously. I mentioned the above to him once and he almost dropped dead on the spot, so whenever I have this for lunch, it is when I am alone and can dispose of all evidence.

Another guilty, dirty favourite of mine is batchelor's pasta 'n' sauce. Especially cheese and broccoli flavour. Now this I can get hold off quite easily and I've had it once a week since lockdown started (DH still going to work). I don't have this on toast, just straight from the pyrex dish in which is has been microwaved. Perfect comfort food for this occassion.

Reminds me of my student days! Lots of butter on the toast too....

Why did you have to mention it? I want some now!

Loads of tins in Manchester. I'll trade it for tinned spaghetti bolognese. [Not really, the postage would be prohibitive!]

What???? No! Are you kidding??

Would love to Eggsy'sMom but I haven't seen much of that around these parts either. Plenty hoops though!

I now want ravioli on toast

I used to have it when I was a child, then we realised it coincided with the squits , haven't eaten it since . But it is a thing

I really want this now! Love ravioli on toast

I find it extremely unappetising. The look and the taste.

How else would you eat it?

The only thing better than ravioli on toast is Campbell's meatballs in gravy on toast.

YA both BVVU.

The online thing worse than tinned ravioli is tinned macaroni cheese. Bleurgh!

Veggie sausages and beans in a tin however, is awesome (and definitely goes on toast).

Yeah, it's an "on toast" as is Heinz Spaghetti Bolognese in a tin.
