Ravioli with Spinach and Bacon



This recipe (and photo) are from Real Simple. It's one of their "20-minute meals"--simple and oh so good.  

1 pound ravioli (fresh or frozen)

         6 slices bacon

         2 tablespoons olive oil

         2 cloves garlic, sliced

         2 bunches fresh spinach, thick stems removed (about 8 cups)

         kosher salt and black pepper

         1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Directions

         1.
Cook the ravioli according to the package directions. Drain and divide among bowls.

         2.
Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until crisp, 6 to 8 minutes; transfer to a paper towel–lined plate. Crumble.

         3.
Wipe out the skillet and heat the oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the spinach, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook, tossing, until just wilted, 1 to 2 minutes.

         4.
Stir the bacon and lemon juice into the spinach.                  Spoon the mixture over the ravioli.
