Easy Ravioli Lasagna Bake
Ingredients:
- 1 package of frozen cheese or beef-filled ravioli (about 24 pieces)
- 1 jar (24 oz) of your favorite marinara sauce
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Optional: 1/2 teaspoon dried basil and 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
2. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of the baking dish, just enough to cover it.
3. Create an even layer with frozen ravioli and top with more sauce and some mozzarella cheese. Repeat until you're out of ravioli.
Optional: Sprinkle the dried basil and oregano evenly over the top layer of cheese.
4. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes, or until the ravioli is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
5. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes to allow the cheese to brown slightly.
6. Once out of the oven, let the lasagna bake cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh basil leaves, if desired.
This Easy Ravioli Lasagna Bake is a time-saving twist on a classic dish that will never fail to impress.
