Lazy Ravioli Lasagna
This easy to make lazy ravioli lasagna is the perfectly delicious meal for busy days
Equipment
- 1 12 " Frying Pan or Braising Pan
- 1 9" x 11" Oven Safe Pan
Ingredients
- 6 oz Frozen or Fresh Ravioli
- 2 cups Marinara Sauce
- 2 cup Mushrooms cleaned and sliced
- 2 cup Spinach washed and finely chopped
- 1 small Zucchini washed and sliced
- 4 cloves Garlic peeled and finely chopped
- 1.5 oz Fresh Mozzarella
- 2 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 4 tablespoon Grated Parmesan or Herbed Parmesan Cheese Powder
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- 5-6 cups Water for cooking the raviolis
Instructions
- Heat the pan and add a table spoon of olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the garlic to the pan. Let this cook for 30 seconds before adding the zucchini and mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes. Add the spinach and cook until the spinach has slightly wilted. If there is any extra water in the pan, remove it carefully and discard. Keep aside the vegetables.
- In the same pan or another pan, fill the pan with enough water to submerge all of the ravioli and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the ravioli slowly to the water and cook until just done. Remove and gently toss with the remaining olive oil.
- Preheat the oven to 350 deg F. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of marinara sauce on the base of the oven safe pan. Add ⅓rd of the raviolis and spread to cover the base of the pan. Top with ½ of the cooked vegetable mixture. Spread ⅓rd of the fresh mozzarella shredded on top of this vegetable mixture.
- Spread another 3-4 tablespoons of sauce over this layer. Now repeat until a second layer is built. Finally top with remaining ravioli pieces. Stuff the gaps with mozzarella sauce and spread the remaining marinara sauce on top. Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese and bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes.
Notes
- Both frozen or fresh raviolis can be used.
- I recommend using any vegetables of your choice to make the lasagna more nutrient dense and filling. If you are running short of time, skip the veggies and just build the layers with raviolis, cheese and marinara sauce.
