The Easiest Weeknight Comfort Food Ever!
This 4-Ingredient Ravioli Lasagna is a genius shortcut to classic lasagna flavor — without all the layering, boiling, or fuss. With store-bought ravioli, rich pasta sauce, gooey cheese, and a few minutes of prep, you’ll have a hearty, comforting meal that tastes like it took all afternoon.
Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Frozen or refrigerated cheese ravioli | 1 (25 oz) package | Any variety works — cheese, spinach, or beef |
| Pasta sauce | 2 cups (about 1 jar) | Marinara or meat sauce for extra flavor |
| Shredded mozzarella cheese | 2 cups | For that gooey, cheesy top |
| Grated Parmesan cheese | ½ cup | Adds richness and depth |
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish lightly with cooking spray or olive oil. - Layer the Ingredients:
- Spread a thin layer of pasta sauce on the bottom of the baking dish.
- Add a single layer of ravioli (frozen or thawed — no need to pre-cook).
- Spoon more sauce over the ravioli and sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan.
- Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with sauce and cheese on top.
- Bake Until Bubbly:
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for another 10–15 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly. - Cool and Serve:
Let the lasagna rest for about 5 minutes before slicing — this helps it set perfectly.
Tips for Perfection:
- Add cooked ground beef or sausage to the sauce for a meaty version.
- Use spinach ravioli for a vegetarian twist.
- Sprinkle with fresh basil or parsley before serving for a fresh finish.
Why You’ll Love It:
- Only 4 simple ingredients — no prep work!
- Tastes like homemade lasagna with a fraction of the effort.
- Perfect for busy weeknights, potlucks, or cozy family dinners.
Would you like me to add a creamy Alfredo version of this recipe (using white sauce and chicken ravioli)?
