Cheesy Baked Ravioli Lasagna made with San Marzano tomatoes, 3 types of cheese, Italian Sausage and frozen ravioli. Easy weeknight baked ravioli recipe full of flavor!
Here’s a cheesy, flavorful Italian recipe that combines two favorites: ravioli and lasagna! It’s a hearty, comforting dish that both kids and adults really enjoy.
Ingredients for Cheesy Baked Ravioli
Here’s what you’ll need to make this recipe:
San Marzano Style Tomatoes
I recommend using Hunt’s San Marzano Style tomatoes- they’re brand new and can be found on the canned vegetable aisle of your local grocery store. San Marzano style tomatoes are a sweeter tomato that are low in acidity, with a thick juice that makes them perfect for baking. Hunt’s San Marzano Style Tomatoes are all-natural and steam peeled and have a bright, tangy fresh flavor.
Hunt’s San Marzano Style Tomatoes are sold in a large 28-oz can and come in three flavors: Plain, Italian, and spicy red pepper. I used the plain variety for this recipe, but the Italian would work well too!
Cheeses
I added 3 different types of cheeses to this recipe! The ricotta, cream cheese and mozzarella add a creamy, flavorful touch to the dish that just tastes great. I also added 1 egg and the seasonings to the cheese mixture.
Meat for Lasagna
I cooked and crumbled 1 pound of Italian sausage for this ravioli bake. You’re welcome to use ground beef or turkey instead. If you’d like to make this a meatless meal, you can slice vegetables like zucchini, mushrooms, broccoli and cauliflower and use those in place of meat!
Frozen Ravioli
I used cheese ravioli in this dish, but you can use any type you’d like! I think beef or chicken would be great. Spinach ravioli is also a great option!
How to make Baked Ravioli Lasagna
Here’s what you’ll need to do to make this recipe at home:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Combine Cheese Mixture
In a small mixing bowl combine ricotta cheese, cream cheese and 1 egg. Stir until smooth. Add in seasonings. Stir & set aside.
Combine Tomatoes & Cooked Sausage
Pour undrained tomatoes into pan with cooked & drained Italian Sausage. Use a Chop-Stir (or a similar utensil) to cut tomatoes and sausage into smaller pieces.
Layer the Lasagna
Spray a 9×13 pan with non-stick spray. Ladle about half of the tomato-sausage mixture into bottom of pan.
Top with a layer of frozen ravioli, then dot ravioli with dollops of the cheese-egg mixture. Spread with about half the shredded mozzarella cheese.
Repeat with another layer of sausage-tomatoes, then the remaining ravioli, ending with the remaining cheeses. If you have a few raviolis left over, I just piled them on top. Yum!
Cover & Bake Ravioli Lasagna
Cover with foil & bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil & bake an additional 10 minutes. Replace foil and let sit about 20 minutes and serve. This resting period allows the sauce to thicken.
