Lazy Ravioli Lasagna Recipe (Easy Casserole)
A quick, hands-off casserole that layers ravioli and marinara for an easy lasagna-style weeknight meal.
Equipment
- 9 x 13-inch baking dish
- Measuring Cups
- Spatula or spoon
- Aluminum Foil
- Oven
Ingredients
- 25 ounce jar pasta or marinara sauce
- 25 ounce package frozen or fresh ravioli
- 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 3 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese
- chopped parsley for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Spread a thin layer of marinara (about 1/4 to 1/3 cup) over the bottom of the prepared dish.
- Arrange a single layer of ravioli over the sauce to cover the bottom of the dish.
- Spoon 1 cup of marinara over the ravioli and sprinkle with 1 cup of shredded mozzarella.
- Repeat layering with remaining ravioli, 1 cup marinara and 1 cup mozzarella until all ravioli are used.
- Top the casserole with the remaining marinara and the remaining shredded mozzarella, then sprinkle the Parmesan evenly on top.
- Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes (if using frozen ravioli, bake 30 minutes covered).
- Remove the foil and return the dish to the oven; bake uncovered for 5–7 minutes more, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
- Frozen ravioli may require an additional 5–10 minutes of baking time.
