Ingredients
- 1 pound Italian sausage
- 1 jar marinara sauce
- 1 14-oz can crushed tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 20-25 ounces ravioli fresh or frozen
- 15 ounces ricotta cheese
- 2-3 cups shredded mozzarella
- basil fresh, to garnish, optional
Instructions
- In a large skillet, cook and crumble the sausage over medium heat. Drain well.
- Add the marinara sauce and crushed tomatoes. Add Italian seasoning.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease the edges of a 9x13 inch casserole dish.
- Spoon about a half cup of the sauce into the pan and spread it all around the bottom.
- Layer half of the ravioli on top in a single layer.
- Spread half of the ricotta over the top of the ravioli (do your best, it doesn't need to be perfect).
- Top with half of the remaining sauce.
- Sprinkle with about 1 cup of mozzarella.
- Repeat the layers: all the remaining ravioli, ricotta, sauce, and another cup or more of mozzarella.
- Bake at 350 for about 30-40 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown. You can broil it for the last minute if you love crispy cheese on top.
- Garnish with fresh basil and dig in!
