BAKED RAVIOLI


1 lb. ground beef or turkey
1 bag refrigerated cheese ravioli
2 cups shredded mozzarella or jack cheese
28 oz. jar spaghetti sauce
shredded parmesan for top

Saute ground meat, drain. Add spaghetti sauce to meat and stir.

In deep casserole dish sprayed with Pam, spread a small amount of sauce/meat in bottom.
Layer half of ravioli.
Spoon and spread half of the meat/sauce mixture over the ravioli.
Layer half of cheese next.
REPEAT, using up all ingredients .

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until bubbly. Sprinkle parmesan on top and run back in oven until melted.

This recipe takes no time to put together and barely thirty minutes to bake. Aaaaand, if you do like I do and saute a google zillion pounds of meat at a time and freeze it, you have half the meal done already.

This is a great Out Of Cans/Jars/Frozen Bags Recipe that kids adore but I still think Cactus' recipe for crostini would go great with it. I mean its sort of like putting a Fendi bag with a Target tunic. Somehow it works great.
