This CrockPot Ravioli Lasagna combines the rich layers of tender ravioli, hearty meat sauce, and gooey melted cheese for a truly satisfying meal. The slow cooker infuses every bite with a deep, comforting flavor that is perfect for a cozy dinner.
- Ingredients:
- 1 bag (25-30 oz) frozen cheese ravioli
- 1 lb ground beef (or turkey)
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups marinara sauce
- 1 (15 oz) container ricotta cheese
- 1 egg
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh basil for garnish (optional)
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, onion, and garlic until the beef is browned and fully cooked. Drain excess fat if needed.
- Stir in the marinara sauce and simmer for 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- In a separate bowl, mix the ricotta cheese and egg until smooth. Set aside.
- In your CrockPot, layer the ingredients: spread a thin layer of the meat sauce on the bottom, then add a layer of frozen ravioli. Top with a scoop of the ricotta mixture, followed by shredded mozzarella and a sprinkle of Parmesan.
- Repeat layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of meat sauce and a generous amount of mozzarella cheese on top.
- Cover and cook on low for 4 hours or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the ravioli is tender.
- Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh basil if desired.
