EASY BAKED RAVIOLI CASSEROLE WITH FROZEN RAVIOLI

INGREDIENTS

48 ounces Frozen Four-Cheese Stuffed Ravioli
48 ounces Pasta Sauce in a Jar Bertolli’s is my personal favorite
1 cup Mozzarella sliced or shredded
½ cup Grated Parmesan
1 pound Ground Beef or Italian Sausage optional.

INSTRUCTIONS

Dump Recipe with Frozen Ravioli
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 13″ x 9″ dish. Add frozen ravioli to dish and stir in pasta sauce. Top with mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan.
Spray aluminum foil with nonstick cooking spray to prevent cheese from sticking and place on top of dish. Bake in the oven for approximately 60 minutes, until pasta is cooked through.

Recipe with Precooked Ravioli and Meat
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 13″ x 9″ dish and set aside.
Boil ravioli according to package directions. Cook ground beef or Italian sausage until browned and drain grease. Add pasta sauce to ground meat.
Place a single layer of ravioli in the bottom of the baking dish and top with a layer of meat sauce. Layer the dish in this order three times and then top with mozzarella and Parmesan. Layering the dish is easier when using precooked pasta, otherwise, the ravioli will pop open as they’re stirred.
Spray aluminum foil with nonstick cooking spray to prevent cheese from sticking and place on top of the dish. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, then remove the aluminum foil, and broil for 2 minutes until the cheese is lightly browned on top.

NOTES

The total cook time listed above is inaccurate as it combines both cooking method time frames. One dish is cooked in 90 minutes and the other is cooked in 30 minutes.
