Fillings
Mix the ingredients for each filling.
Heat in microwave until hot.
Set aside.
Ravioli
Add the water to the egg white and beat with a fork until well blended.
Heat a cast iron or other heavy pan or griddle
Quickly rub a little butter over it and then clean it back off with a paper towel.
Pour 1 1/2 tablespoons of the egg white onto the griddle.
Quickly and gently move the bowl of the spoon over the top to make a perfectly even circle (or as close as you can get.)
As soon as the top is set add a teaspoon or so of filling.
Fold the edged up over the middle to envelope the filling.
Gently turn the ravioli over so the folds are on the bottom.
Let set for a few seconds then transfer to a plate.
Repeat.
Notes
This is more flavorful if you add 1 tablespoon melted garlic butter over the top which adds 100 calories and 1 g carb. Do remember to add in the carbs and calories for any sauce you use.
