Baked Ravioli

So…baking ravioli. Let’s chat about this for a minute.

I’ve seen a number of recipes that call for boiling the ravioli ahead of time and then baking it with the sauce. But I don’t have time for that. I really don’t…I’d forget that you need to do that…then I’d run out of time. (What I mean by that…is that my boys would end up having to wait an extra 15-20 minutes for dinner…and when they are hungry and antsy and waiting for dinner, I can’t afford to have to wait any longer than need be!)

You can absolutely add water to the baking dish and it will bake perfectly. The ravioli will take on the water that you add and take some liquid from the spaghetti sauce and the end result: Perfection, as you can see above.

This is a FreezEasy freezer friendly meal…but if you’re going to freeze it, do NOT add water before you put it in the freezer. Make a note on the tray/lid that you need to add 1 cup of hot water before baking. Pour the water around the edges so it gets to the bottom and the ravioli that’s under the sauce.

Another reason I love this meal – besides the fact that it’s ridiculously delicious, is a “5-ingredient meal” and is freezer friendly…it takes like 5 minutes to prepare. Actually, more like 3 minutes.

Place ravioli in dish. Add water to dish. Pour sauce over the top. Sprinkle Parm. Sprinkle mozz. BAKE.

S.O. E.A.S.Y.

AND…it makes amazing leftovers too!

Buon Appetito! (That would be Italian for ENJOY IT!)
