Ingredients:
- 1 package (25 oz) frozen cheese ravioli
- 1 jar (24 oz) marinara sauce
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or a little olive oil.
- In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 1 cup mozzarella, Parmesan, sour cream, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until smooth and well-combined.
- Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Layer half of the frozen ravioli on top of the sauce. Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the ravioli, then top with a layer of marinara sauce.
- Repeat with the remaining ravioli, ricotta mixture, and marinara sauce.
- Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the top and cover the dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake for 30 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
- Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh touch.
