Looking for a delectable dinner? Ravioli Lasagna is easier to make that traditional lasagna and just as delicious!
Last summer I came upon a recipe for Ravioli Lasagna, seemingly so simple…it was definitely worth a try instead of the usual laborious task of lasagna assembly. It was indeed well loved by {most of} our family and continues to appear in the meal planning rotation around these parts.
What I love about this dish? It feeds a crowd, is total comfort food and the leftovers are great if you’re not actually feeding a crowd in one night. Win-win! You still need to bake this for almost an hour, but the good news is assembling it is actually a breeze and you can put it together ahead of time and refrigerate until you’re ready to bake. And moms everywhere rejoiced because dinner was so easy and delicious!
