Cheese Ravioli With Vegetarian " Meat" Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1 small onion, chopped
    2 garlic cloves, minced
    1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (to taste)
    1 teaspoon dried basil
    1 teaspoon dried oregano
    2 cups vegetarian ground beef, frozen (2 pouches of the Boca brand)
    salt and pepper
    1 (26 ounce) jar tomato sauce & mushrooms
    1 lb cheese ravioli
    parmesan cheese, grated
Preparation
    Cook ravioli in boiling salted water for 6-7 minutes.
    In the meantime, heat olive oil over medium heat, and saute onions and garlic and crushed red pepper until soft, about 5-6 minutes.
    Add basil, oregano, and meatless crumbles and saute another 5-6 minutes more. The crumbles should be thawed, and get a little color on them as they mix with the garlic and onions.
    If the pan seems to get dry, add 1/4 cup of water so the crumbles don't stick.
    Add salt and pepper to taste.
    Finally, add the jar of tomato sauce and mix together.
    Cover with a lid, and let simmer on low for another 10 minutes.
    Toss sauce with cooked ravioli, and serve with grated cheese.
