Ravioli Lasagna Bake

beef

onion,

Kosher salt

black pepper

garlic,

(32-oz.) jar marinara

whole milk ricotta

c. Parmesan, divided

c. basil,

garlic powder

(12-oz.) packages frozen cheese ravioli

c. mozzarella

Preheat oven to 350º and grease a 9”-x-13” baking dish with cooking spray. Warm a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat and add ground beef and onion. Season with salt and pepper and cook until beef is browned and onion is soft, about 10 minutes, then drain fat and return to skillet. Stir in garlic and marinara, then reduce heat and simmer for flavors to meld, 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, add ricotta, egg, 1/4 cup&nbsp;Parmesan, basil, garlic powder, and season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.&nbsp;

Spread 1/3 of the meat sauce into prepared pan. Top with a single layer of ravioli, half of the remaining meat sauce, half of the ricotta mixture, and half of the mozzarella and remaining Parmesan. Repeat layers, ending on cheeses.&nbsp;

Cover pan loosely with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake until golden and bubbly, 15 minutes more. Sprinkle with remaining basil and serve.

This is delicious, I am a school chef and I make this dish, for our school lunch and our kids love it.  The question asked is:  Do you cook the ravioli? From frozen, I cooked the ravioli according to the directions on the package.  Hope this can help.

One of my favorite recipes of all time. I can't go back to regular lasagna. So much flavor and depth. The fresh basil makes a huge difference in taste. I tried making it without fresh basil during the winter and it was not the same. I also use Rana brand ravioli which adds more flavor than frozen ravioli, in my opinion. Amazing recipe!

This recipe is a keeper! Everyone raved about the flavor and they took not only a second helping, but a third helping at dinner. I used super fresh ingredients, two different flavored raviolis, added more meat, a hot Italian sausage,  added portabella mushrooms,  and doubled the sauce. Actually next time I will use 1 and a half jars of sauce. The raviolis were not frozen and they turned out fantastic.

After all the recipes on this website so far, this is my families absolute favorite. My mother especially loved it because she really missed Swedish lasagna when she moved to America but after making this recipe, this is her new favorite.

Wow! This was unbelievable. We used a meat substitute to make it vegetarian. I added a little extra sauce per some of the reviews and I used a family size 20 oz of refrigerated ravioli and it was perfectly fine. It took longer than 15 minutes to assemble, but my family of four almost ate half of this! I will absolutely make this again and there’s little to nothing to change from the original recipe. Kudos!

Great dish! A simple alternative to lasagna that tastes delicious! Great idea for a pot luck.

Wow, I finally made this today and it smells wonderful!!!  Thanks for the great recipe.

I let the ravioli thaw the night before in the fridge. It was amazing. I don’t know if it matters, but I wanted to make sure that it would be warm and ready to go when eating. This was the best lasagna dish I’ve ever made myself. I wouldn’t change anything. I bought everything except the basil at ALDI and it fed 7 people for under $20 with leftovers to spare. Even with a side salad and garlic bread. You can’t beat that.

I made this for the first time and my husband really liked it.  I added a little cream to the ricotta/egg mixture because it was a little thick but that was the only change I made.  I wish i had used a little more meat than it called for....i had to skimp a little on my meat layers. I think it would be better with about 2 lbs of ground meat and 2 jars of marina sauce if you like a more meaty dish.  But it is an excellent dish and would be a great dish to take to a church dinner.

I've made it 2 times now, best meal ever it's so good!!! Definitely would recommend
