When you taste this casserole, you'll think it came from a complicated, from-scratch
recipe. Really, though, it starts with frozen ravioli and has only three other ingredients.
—Patricia Smith, Asheboro, North Carolina
Ingredients
1 pound ground beef
1 jar (28 ounces) spaghetti sauce
1 package (25 ounces) frozen sausage or cheese ravioli
1-1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
Minced fresh basil, optional
Directions
1. In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. In a greased 2-1/2-qt. baking dish,
layer a third of the spaghetti sauce, half of the ravioli and beef, and 1/2 cup cheese; repeat layers. Top with
remaining sauce and cheese.
2. Cover and bake at 400° until heated through, 40-45 minutes. If desired, top with basil to serve.

Made this for dinner last night and we both loved it. I did dress it up a little by adding an egg combined with
about 6 oz of ricotta, then mixed half the mozz into this. Spread this mixture on top of each layer before
adding nal layer of sauce, mozz and about 1/4 cup of Parm. Left the ravioli frozen and used the jarred sauce
that starts with R and ends with s. Dish came out perfect - not watery at all. I like that it was enough for dinner
one night and lunch another day. Will de nitely make this again.

This was just ok. The sauce was watery from the frozen raviolis and they were doughy. My husband who loves
lasagna couldn’t eat this. I reheated the next day and the sauce was less watery and the taste was slightly
improved but I will not be making this again.

I made this last night. Someone else went to the store for me and picked up both ravioli and tortellini. I used
Italian sausage browned with an onion. The ravioli went on the bottom and the tortellini on the top layer. Since
I cannot stand the taste of jarred spaghetti sauce: I used a refrigerated one, Buitoni. I have found that their
marinara sauce to be the closest to homemade. When I served it the ravioli was too chewy and avorless. I will
go with all tortellini next time. My dinner was a ht.

This was tasty and easy, but not awesome. I followed recipe exactly rst time, It was okay. 2nd time I
substituted mild pork sausage for hamburger, full cream for half and half, and added dried minced parsley in
lling and on top - much better. Next time I will add minced, sautéed mushrooms and a bit more Italian
seasoning. Easy, and everyone liked it.

I made a homemade spaghetti sauce and then followed the recipe. I used four cheese mini ravioli and made
three layers. In addition to the mozzarella, I sprinkled a little grated reggi parm on the top. I love this recipe.
