You’ll need:

• 1 pound of ground beef
• 1 teaspoon of minced garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
• 24-ounce jar of pasta sauce (or make your own tomato sauce)
• 25-ounce bag of square frozen ravioli
• 2 cups of mozzarella cheese

Substitutions And Additions

MEAT: Add Italian sausage or pork to the ground beef, or you can even substitute the ground beef for ground pork or ground turkey.

CHEESE: Add ricotta cheese, cottage cheese, or cream cheese between the layers. Or substitute smoked provolone, fontina cheese, or an Italian cheese blend for additional flavors.

SAUCE: Add a little Alfredo sauce to the mix to make it even creamier. Fresh/canned mushrooms or fresh/frozen spinach also make great additions to the marinara sauce. For a zesty kick, add crushed red pepper flakes.

FRESH VS FROZEN: Substitute the frozen ravioli for fresh ravioli.

Notes

• You can assemble this ahead of time and leave in the fridge until you’re ready to bake. It would also make a great meal to give to a friend or neighbor.
• You do not need to boil the ravioli before making this dish.
• If some of your frozen ravioli are stuck together you can microwave them for 10 to 15 seconds, enough to pull them apart.
• Count out your ravioli into three piles so you know exactly what you have to work with for each layer.
• You can also bake this covered in foil if you’d like — just make sure to remove it at the end so the cheese has a chance to get browned a little on top!
