The result is a mouth-watering cheesy casserole that actually does taste similar to lasagna if you opt for a ravioli with ricotta cheese inside. This version is much less work involved though!

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!

      I’m a 3 ingredient recipe girl. We have several we like including the ravioli lasagna in the post; these are quick things we’ve made the past few days.

      • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

        Thanks for sharing your ideas – yum!

  3. Krissy

    Our family loves this recipe! You could even add ground beef or sausage in between the layers too.

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Yes we do that sometimes too. Very tasty as well!

  4. MM

    Thank you so much 🙂

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Sure – enjoy!

  5. babymair

    My family loves this!!. I have added so many things to this recipe. Sometimes when we have extra chicken in the summer from grilling, I add that and put it in the crockpot.Super easy . Thx ,keep up the good work ,God bless.

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Oh I love that idea – yum! Thx

  6. Nicole

    I know that you have a sister website that is full of Keto friendly recipes, but do y’all have any gluten-free recipes also? 🙂

  7. 50ShadesofLipstick

    This is really good with tortellini too.

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Yes!! Thanks for sharing ❤️

  8. coggii

    Does anyone know where to purchase quality frozen beef ravioli? We aren’t fans of cheese ravioli? Thanks!

    • jen s.

      Aldi and Trader Joe’s have a good selection. You could always throw refrigerated ones in your freezer so the outonlinee would be the same 🙂

    • CASSANDRE

      Kroger brand taste the best

  9. MombieZombie

    I’m confused…do l boil the ravioli first? It says “prepared package” or am l throwing them in still frozen?

    Help me l am dense 😕

    • jen s.

      Use them frozen. Directions probably shouldn’t say prepared….

      • MombieZombie

        thank you!

    • Cassandre

      Make your best meat sauce with onions and veggies. Add two 30 cents cans of tomatoe sauce to it and them add it to the bottom of a dish. Top with ravioli from Kroger which taste the best. Add light italian mix cheese. Repeat and add an entire bag of straight parmesan cheese and italian seasoning. Cook on baking sheet 45 -55 min. So good

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Oh sorry that just means packaged ravioli – they are frozen and will bake in with the sauce and cheese. No need to boil first.

    • Nikki

      I make this but add a layer of cottage cheese or ricotta cheese as well to make it more like lasagna. It is amazing!

  10. jen s.

    I just made this in my slow cooker the other day… but I use the low setting for 3-4 hours. onlinees out perfect!

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Thanks so much for sharing – I’d love to try that next.

  11. Cassandre

    I always make this recipe. I’ll never make lasagna again. I dont have to deal with ricotta

  12. Shannon

    It is so funny to see this posting as this is what we are having for dinner. I did add a layer of chicken patties to have a mock chicken parm ravioli bake.

    I have made these in the past with alfredo sauce, grilled chicken strips, and broccoli florets layered with the ravioli. I stock up on ravioli when our local grocery has them for a dollar a bag.

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Wow such great ideas! Thanks Shannon!

  13. Jenn M

    This is called Baked Ravioli at the restaurants on Long Island.

  14. Niky

  15. jillmur

    Yum!!! Just made this. Used pizza sauce instead for my “I won’t eat tomato chunks son” and it was still great!! Have hard time feeding the sane meal to the whole family! Did Frozen chicken patties in air fryer to go with it as well too make it into chicken parmigiana! Thanks for the ideas!!

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Hooray 😃 I love that idea for the chicken! Thanks for stopping by!

    • Pat Goff

      My brothers are the same. They used to eat tomato paste and sauce but won’t even eat that anymore. LOL

  16. Shelly

    Funny, I made this about 2 weeks ago from Pinterest & my 8yr old daughter would not stop praising how good it was It was definitely a quick meal as there was no time spent on prep like the normal lasagna Definitely a keeper

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Oh nice! Thanks Shelly!

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Oh yum! Yes I had leftovers yesterday for lunch too. Enjoy Pat!

  20. Pat Goff

    I used the organic Aldi sauce. So much cheaper than Raos. They are both delicious.

      Oh good idea! Thank you for sharing ❤️

  22. Dee

    Easy recipe for teens to make for their family dinners! We have added mini meatballs or cooked italian sausage on top half for the meat eaters. Thanks for the simple recipe: easy to half and just bake in 8 X 8 pan.

    • Lina

      Yes agree! Thanks so much Dee!
