Update: it took time. And then a quick pry with a knife. Saved the dishes. Ravioli saved too but for raccoons outside probably lol. What I learned about physics....sheesh.

Microwave it on its side.

Assuming its empty, i would take the grog oggah boogah solution of smash the blue plastic bowl down the edge of your countertop. Something will give sometime.

Otherwise, did you try twisting the bowl one direction and the plate the other? Torque is typically a more effective force than pulling for friction.

I also think heating everything up is the smoothest solution. But to offer an alternative, I'd use dental floss to get in between the bowl and plate. If the bowl has slightly rounded edges (I believe it will), it won't be too hard to get floss in. With the floss you'll get inevitably some air in... Which will equalise the pressure and break the vacuum.

As an inferior alternative to floss, fishing line could work for this approach as well.

were you able to free the raviolis

Hey, if you're using the hot bowl trick, make sure you pay attention to it; if you leave it to get hot and forget, it will be even harder to unstick it because the escaping hot air inside will make a partial vacuum when it cools down.

That bottom bowl looks plastic, just push on the side gently to try and break the seal around the other dish.
