Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 25 oz bag frozen cheese ravioli
  • 1 lb ground beef or Italian sausage
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 24 oz jar marinara sauce
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley optional garnish

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. Brown ground beef with onion and garlic in a skillet, then drain excess grease.
  3. Stir marinara sauce and Italian seasoning into the meat mixture and simmer 3–4 minutes.
  4. In a bowl, mix cream cheese, ricotta, and sour cream until smooth.
  5. Spread a thin layer of meat sauce in the baking dish.
  6. Layer half the frozen ravioli, half the cream mixture, and half the mozzarella.
  7. Repeat layers and finish with remaining meat sauce and parmesan on top.
  8. Cover with foil and bake 25 minutes, uncover and bake 10 more minutes until bubbly.
  9. Let rest 5–10 minutes before serving and garnish with parsley.

Notes

  • No need to thaw ravioli before layering.
  • Use Italian sausage for extra bold flavor.
  • Let the casserole rest before slicing so layers hold together.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat covered.
