Using frozen ravioli gives you the layers of tender pasta and cheesy filling without having to do anything to make it happen.

We like using Italian sausage, but you can use ground beef if you prefer. Or leave it out if you want a meatless meal.

Using two jars of pasta sauce means there is plenty of sauce. Not only does it make it taste extra good, it gives you something to wipe up with your garlic bread.

That is one of the best parts! We normally make a green salad or steam some broccoli, and dinner is done!

If you like this recipe, you may also like crockpot baked pasta. It’s a no boil recipe that starts with a box of pasta instead of ravioli.

Ingredients

Instructions

Grease the insert of your crockpot.
In a large skillet, brown the 1 pound bulk Italian Sausage over medium to medium-high heat. Drain the extra grease if needed.
Add the 48 ounces jarred pasta sauce, using the ½ cup water to get the rest out of the jars. Stir in the 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon oregano, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper.
Put about ⅓ of the meat sauce mixture in the bottom of the crockpot.
Layer in ½ of the 25 ounces frozen cheese ravioli.
Continue layering with ⅓ of the meat sauce, the rest of the ravioli, then the remaining sauce.
Cover and cook on low for 3-5 hours.
Sprinkle the 8 ounces shredded mozzarella. Put the lid back on, slightly ajar, and cook for another 45 minutes to an hour or until the cheese is melted.

Notes

If you are in a hurry, you can make this in the oven instead. Layer everything but the cheese in a 9×13-inch pan and cover it with foil. Bake it for 45 minutes, then remove the foil and top it with cheese. Bake it for another 10-15 minutes or until the cheese cooked to your liking.
