I am very excited to make this Easy Baked Ravioli Casserole again! This quickly climbs up the ladder to my family’s favourite list. This casserole is made with five ingredients and ready in a snap. You can even make this ahead and freeze. It is super perfect if you are meal planning. For this recipe, I used ground beef, but you can swap it with ground Italian sausage if desired. You can also add vegetables such as mushrooms and green peppers. This easy recipe is very versatile and guarantees to deliver the best meal every time!
Ingredients
1 25-ounces pkg. frozen cheese ravioli
1 yellow onion diced
1 pound ground beef
1 ½ – 2 c. shredded mozzarella cheese
1 26-ounces jar pasta sauce
HOW TO MAKE EASY BAKED RAVIOLI CASSEROLE
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 425 degrees F. Using a nonstick spray, grease an 11 x 7 x 8 x 13-inch baking dish.
Step 2: Cook the ground beef with the diced onion in a skillet over medium heat. When done, drain the excess grease.
Step 3: On the bottom of the prepared dish, layer 1 cup of the pasta sauce. Top with half of the frozen ravioli, then half of the beef mixture, and half of the cheese. Do the same layering (1 cup pasta sauce, then the rest of the ravioli and beef mixture).
Step 4: On top, add the rest of the pasta sauce and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
Step 5: Tent the baking dish with foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake the casserole for about 30 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake for an additional 8 to 10 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the sauce is bubbly.
Step 6: Remove from the oven when done and serve the casserole with some garlic bread and a nice crisp, green salad. Enjoy!
