Recipe Tips for baked ravioli lasagna:
-
- Customize this ravioli lasagna to your taste by using these three ingredients as a base and then adding fresh veggies like spinach, bell peppers, mushroom, and/or zucchini.
-
- I have made this many times and most recently tried it with adding cooked ground Italian sausage to the marinara sauce before starting. It turned out awesome as well!
-
- One Hip Reader mentioned she made this in her slow cooker by cooking on HIGH for 3-4 hours, adding the cheese on top during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Easy peasy!
-
- You could also make variations using prepared pesto sauce or Alfredo sauce instead. I love that this idea can be so versatile!
This baked ravioli does not disappoint. After all, easy meal ideas are my favorite!
