Ravioli Bake is a cheesy and comforting casserole that turns store-bought ravioli into a delicious, crowd-pleasing meal with minimal effort and maximum flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 (20–25 oz) package refrigerated or frozen ravioli (cheese, meat, or spinach)
  • 3 cups marinara or pasta sauce
  • 1 cup ricotta or cottage cheese (optional)
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or cooking spray
  • Fresh basil or parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with olive oil or cooking spray.
  2. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of the dish.
  3. Arrange a single layer of ravioli over the sauce (no need to pre-cook).
  4. Spoon ricotta or cottage cheese over the ravioli, if using. Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Add a pinch of Italian seasoning and garlic powder.
  5. Repeat layers: sauce, ravioli, cheese, seasoning—finishing with mozzarella and Parmesan on top.
  6. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes.
  7. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10–15 minutes, until cheese is bubbly and lightly golden.
  8. Let rest for 5–10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired.

Notes

  • Use frozen ravioli directly—just increase bake time by 5–10 minutes.
  • Add cooked ground beef or sautéed vegetables for extra substance.
  • Mix marinara and Alfredo sauce for a creamy tomato base.
  • Can be assembled ahead and refrigerated up to 24 hours before baking.
  • Great for meal prep or freezing—before or after baking.
