Lazy Girl Lasagna (Ravioli Bake)

The Ultimate Guide to Making a Delicious Lazy Girl Lasagna Ravioli Bake

Description

At its simplest level, the Lazy Girl Lasagna Ravioli Bake is a clever reimagining of the classic layered pasta dish. Instead of using dry lasagna sheets that require boiling or special “no-bake” noodles that can sometimes turn out gummy, this recipe utilizes frozen or refrigerated ravioli. Because the ravioli are already stuffed with ricotta and other cheeses, they act as both the pasta layer and a significant portion of the cheese filling simultaneously.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 (24 oz) bag frozen cheese ravioli

  • 2 cups marinara sauce

  • 1 cup ricotta cheese

  • 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

  • ½ tsp garlic powder

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • 1 tbsp olive oil (optional)

  • Fresh basil or parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven
    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.

  2. Prepare the Base Layer
    Spread about ½ cup marinara sauce on the bottom of the baking dish.

  3. Add Ravioli Layer
    Arrange a layer of frozen ravioli over the sauce.

  4. Add Cheese Mixture
    Dollop spoonfuls of ricotta cheese over the ravioli, then sprinkle some mozzarella and Parmesan. Season with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

  5. Repeat Layers
    Add another layer of marinara sauce, ravioli, and cheese until ingredients are used, finishing with a generous layer of mozzarella and Parmesan on top.

  6. Bake
    Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes.
    Remove foil and bake another 10–15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  7. Serve
    Let it rest for 5 minutes, then garnish with fresh basil or parsley and serve warm.
