Storage
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the air fryer for a few minutes to restore crispiness.
Freezing: Freeze uncooked, seasoned ravioli on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag. Air fry directly from frozen, adding a couple of extra minutes to cook time.
Serving Suggestions
- Serve with a side of garlic breadsticks.
