When I was a little, my mom used to make lasagna a few times a year. I always looked forward to it and the smell of it baking in the oven. I could almost taste it as it cooked. Just thinking about it now is making me hungry. All the baked cheese and noodles with sauce, it was amazing. Seriously, amazing!

But it was also so much work. You needed to boil the noodles, make the ricotta cheese mixture and add the ingredients layer by layer. I’m sure it was a labor of love for my mom, but it was also super time consuming. And a lot of work.

Can You Make Lasagna With Ravioli Noodles?

It a word – YES! Using ravioli noodles instead of lasagna is like a shortcut to dinner. Sure, you could use no boil noodles, but when you use ravioli there is even less work.

Ravioli noodles are already filled with delicious ingredients. The cheese ones are often filled with a combination of ricotta, mozzarella, and parmesan cheese. You can also find them filled with spinach and cheese, which adds spinach to the cheesy blend. If you prefer mushrooms or meat in your lasagna, you can also use mushroom or meat filled ravioli. The possibilities are endless.

Whatever ravioli you choose, it becomes one less layer of the lasagna needed. So instead of adding noodles and then a ricotta cheese layer. When you simply add the ravioli pieces and it’s already done for you. How great is that!

You don’t need to precook any noodles. Simply use fresh packaged ravioli and you can throw together you homemade lasagna in under 10 minutes.

Should you bake lasagna covered or uncovered?

This is a question that gets asked a lot. And the answer is BOTH!

Super Easy Cheese Ravioli Lasagna takes 30 minutes to bake. For the first 15 minutes, you will want to bake it covered with tin foil. This helps keep the lasagna moist and stops it from drying out while cooking. And you want your lasagna to be saucy and cheesy.

Then, for the last 15 minutes of baking, you uncover the casserole. When it’s uncovered, the mozzarella and parmesan cheese topping melts, and browns – giving it a perfectly cheesy crust. Yum!

Can You Freeze Super Easy Cheese Ravioli Lasagna?

Absolutely! We make Super Easy Cheese Ravioli Lasagna as a freezer meal. Simply prepare you lasagna in a 9×13 tin foil pan. When all the layers are prepared, cover it with plastic wrap, as tight as possible, and wrap it with tin foil. Then you can freeze it for up to three months.

When you are ready to cook your Super Easy Cheese Ravioli Lasagna, simply defrost it in the refrigerator the night before and bake.

It will be just as delicious as if you cooked it right after preparing it!

How to Make Super Easy Cheese Ravioli Lasagna

This tasty meal is as easy as it is delicious. And it’s made in only 4 simple steps and using only 4 delicious ingredients. How perfect is that!

STEP 1: PREHEAT OVEN TO 425°F (230°C)

If you don’t usually bake your casserole at 425°F, you are going to love it. When it cooks at a higher temperature, you get your dinner to the table faster and when the top layer of cheese is baking, it gets a delicious lightly browned cooked top.

Step 2: Assemble the Lasagna

Grab a 9×13 casserole dish because it’s time to throw together some super easy comfort food. There are only two pasta layers for this lasagna and it comes together really quickly. So, let’s get started.

Add marinara sauce to the bottom of the casserole dish. This does two very important things. First, it flavors the lasagna from the bottom up, giving it a moist and delicious flavor. And it helps to prevent the lasagna from sticking to the bottom. You don’t want a lasagna that’s stuck in the casserole dish.

Now, it’s time to add the ravioli. Add a single layer of ravioli to the casserole dish, slightly overlapping. When the ravioli is slightly overlapping at the edges, it makes it like one, casserole-size piece of pasta. Yum!

Then comes more sauce and cheese. So, you add a layer of marinara sauce and then some mozzarella cheese.

Finally, it’s time for the last layer of ravioli. Again, you can add the ravioli as a single, sightly overlapping layer. Top it with a marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, and parmesan cheese.

That last bit of parmesan cheese is like the cheese icing on this delicious lasagna casserole cake. It’s a super cheesy comfort food dish.

Step 3: Cover and Bake

To help keep the lasagna perfectly moist, cover it with tin foil for the first 15 minutes while baking. During the last 15 minutes, remove the foil to give the top a lightly crunchy, cheesy crust. When it’s all done, Super Easy Cheese Ravioli Lasagna will have a perfect cheesy crust on top and cheesy and saucy in the middle.

Step 4: Rest and Serve

You may be tempted to eat the lasagna as soon as it comes out of the oven. But you’ll want to let it rest for a bit – at least 5 to 10 minutes.

If you cut into the lasagna too soon, the layers will begin to fall apart and it won’t hold together like a lasagna should. Plus, it’s too hot to eat when it comes fresh out of the oven.

After 10 minutes, serve and enjoy the lasagna. It’s one delicious dish!
