Equipment For Making Baked Ravioli Recipe
- 1 oven-safe baking dish or skillet
Ingredients
- 20 ounces of cheese ravioli
- ½ cup water
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 3 cups marinara sauce
- 1 cup parmesan grated
- 8 ounces fresh mozzarella cherry size
- 4 ounces of mozzarella cheese shredded
- 1.5 teaspoon oregano dried
- 1 teaspoon thyme dried or fresh
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- In a bowl combine marinara, water, oregano, thyme, garlic, pepper, parmesan, heavy cream, and ravioli. Optional, add a pinch of salt, if you like things salty.
- Pour half of the ravioli mixture into an oven-safe skillet or casserole dish. Layer half the grated mozzarella cheese on top of the ravioli.
- Pour the rest of the ravioli mixture over the cheese and spread out.
- Cover tightly with a lid or foil. Bake for 25 minutes, or until the ravioli is cooked al dente and the sauce is bubbling.
- Remove the lid and broil for 2-4 minutes, until the cheese on top starts to turn golden brown.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and freshly grated parmesan cheese.

- You can use fresh or frozen ravioli. For fresh ravioli, reduce the covered cooking time to about 20 minutes.
- Optional: Substitute more shredded mozzarella for the fresh mozzarella.
- You can substitute any type of ravioli or even tortellini for the cheese ravioli.
