Fried Raviolis

Need an amazing appetizer that will impress everyone? Look no further. This recipe is so impressive, Chris has requested I make it for every.single.event. we've been invited to/hosted since Christmas. He's also requested it for dinner alone- and he makes sure we have the ingredients on hand at all times. Chris has never approved of anything I've made this much before. They are also super easy to make. Beware- they are addicting :)

Ok, even seeing this picture is making me glad we keep the ingredients on hand at all times.
