Brown Butter Raviolis with Walnuts and Snap Peas (plus Roasted Asparagus)

One of my friends came over for dinner so we made a variation of the brown butter raviolis with chicken and walnuts. We wanted something lighter, so we omitted the chicken and added in snap peas. We also made a side of roasted asparagus. I've never had roasted asparagus before...it is pretty darn tasty. You should make some too. Roasted veggies are a very easy way to prepare veggies too.

8 jumbo frozen cheese ravioli
1/2 cup walnuts, toasted
1 tsp olive oil

1 clove garlic, minced
2 tbsp butter
