Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 25 ounce package Frozen cheese ravioli
  • 1 pound Italian sausage or ground beef
  • 1 24 ounce jar Marinara sauce or pasta sauce of your choice
  • 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tablespoon All purpose seasoning
  • 1 15 ounce container Ricotta cheese
  • 1 ½ cups shredded Mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese plus more for serving
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Start by browning your Italian sausage or ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. Drain the excess fat and season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Stir in marinara sauce and simmer.
  • If you are using Italian sausage links, brown them until there is no more pink- remove them from the skillet and let them cool down for about 5-7 minutes, then slice them into about 1 inch slices.
  • Spray your crockpot with non-stick spray, or use a slow-cooker liner. Gently pour in some of your marinara sauce, sprinkle in some of the seasonings, then layer in some of the cooked meat, then the frozen ravioli, a few dallops of ricotta cheese, and sprinkle a layer of mozzarella cheese.
  • Continue layering, ending with the last layer of marinara sauce, and mozzarella and parmesan cheese.
  • Cover and cook on LOW for 4-5 hours or HIGH for 2-3 hours, or until ravioli is tender and cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Rest 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra Parmesan cheese or fresh basil, if desired. And Enjoy!

Notes

Be careful not to fill the slow cooker all the way to the top with your ravioli lasagna, because the raviolis expand as they cook and the sauce will begin to overflow.
