Beef Ravioli with Basil Cream Sauce

Another recipe from my "Southern Living" book I "borrowed" from my mom.
This is an AMAZING recipe.
It literally tastes like a restaurant put it together.

It's easy too.
Yay!

Matti

1 (24-oz.) package frozen beef ravioli
2 Tbsp. butter
1 (8-oz.) package sliced fresh mushrooms
3 green onions, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp. dried Italian seasoning
1 (10-oz.) can diced mild tomatoes and green chiles, drained (I JUST USE REG DICED TOMOATOES AND AND 1/2 can of green chilies. This eliminates spicyness of the the chilies, which some combo cans.
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh basil
1 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp. salt

Prepare ravioli in a large Dutch oven according to package directions; drain and keep warm in separate dish.

Melt butter in Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and next 3 three ingredients; saute 6 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and green chiles, basil, and cream; bring to a gentle boil. Reduce heat, and simmer (uncovered), stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Stir in cheese, salt and ravioli, tossing to coat.
