Baked ravioli is the weeknight hero you need. Frozen ravioli. Jarred sauce. Cheese. Bake. That’s literally it. No boiling. No stuffing. No layering drama. 10 minutes of prep. Tastes like you tried. You didn’t. That’s the secret.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Preheat & Prep
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13 baking dish.
Assemble
Spread 1 cup marinara on the bottom of the dish.
Layer half the frozen ravioli in a single layer. Top with 1 cup marinara, half the mozzarella, and half the Parmesan.
Repeat with remaining ravioli, marinara, mozzarella, and Parmesan. Sprinkle Italian seasoning on top.
Bake
Cover with foil. Bake 30 minutes. Uncover and bake 10-15 minutes until bubbly and golden.
Serve
Let rest 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil if desired. Serve hot. Watch it disappear.
