What kind of sauce would go good with Ravioli stuffed with Asiago, pine nuts, and basil?!
olive oil
butter
one lemon
fresh parmesan
white wine
kosher salt
pepper
onion
tomato
Is there a good sauce I could make with a combination of some of those ingredients? If you have any other good recipes I could probably go to the store.

I think a butter sauce would be yummy. Here's a nice recipe:
Butter Sauce for Pasta, Seafood, Etc.
Recipe #177492
The best simple butter sauce - rich, creamy, fabulous! Use with any pasta recipe - fettucine with chicken, angel hair with shrimp, or just over some spaghetti noodles. Its flavor is great! I must give credit to Elswet's Shrimp Pasta in Herb Butter Sauce as this is an augmentation of that recipe, which is delicious as well. As you can see, there are "necessary ingredients" and "seasoning ingredients". This is because the base of the sauce are the necessary ingredients. All of the other ingredients can be changed around, left out, substituted, etc. in accordance with your liking or what you have on hand.
Necessary Ingredients
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup margarine
1 tablespoon flour
3-4 tablespoons evaporated milk
Seasoning Ingredients
1/8-1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
3 pinches cayenne
1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4-1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
Let both butter and margarine soften.
Using hand mixer, blend butter and margarine together with flour until well incorporated.(I generally do this blending in a glass bowl which I can then place on top of a pan of simmering water for the next steps).
Melt the butter/flour mixture in a double boiler over med. low heat(or glass bowl over simmering pan) until just melted.
As butter/flour mixture is melting, add it the evaporated milk, garlic powder, cayenne, salt and pepper. All of these ingredients are according to your taste - you can use real garlic and heavy cream, white pepper, whatever you prefer or have on hand. You can add up to 4 tablespoons of evaporated milk without making the sauce too thin.
Lastly, add in as much paremsan cheese as you would like, my preference is about 2 tablespoons.
Pour over noodles or whatever and enjoy!
Saute all of the ingredients you listed and you will have a nice sauce for the ravioli. It's a no brainer.
Make some yummy pesto sauce. Olive oil, fresh Parmesan, and ground pine nuts. Toss it into your Ravioli.
I would make a simple white sauce
3 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp flour
1 cup milk
1 tsp granulated onion powder
1/2 tsp granulated garlic powder
salt & pepper to taste
Basil (optional)
mix all ingredients in order of list in a saucepan on medium heat until thickened.
More milk can be added for a thinner sauce.
a little white wine can be substituted for some of the milk.
Forget it if you don't have any garlic in the house.
Alfredo sauce would be amazing with the ravioli. A Marsala would be nice as well.
I would make a simple butter and sage sauce. Just melt some butter in a pan and add a few fresh sage leaves. Add a little pasta water at the end and you're set to go. It's so easy and would be delicious with the asiago ravioli.
a sage cream sauce would be great.....if you had some fresh sage. But you would also need cream. Everything else you would have to make the sauce. Oh and garlic, only the most important ingredient of all.
Pesto sauce, I cheat and use McCormick intsant and it's still yummy.
