Make a hearty, cheesy lasagna with minimal effort by using pre-made ravioli in your slow cooker. This dump-and-go recipe is perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (25 ounce) package refrigerated or frozen cheese ravioli
  • 1 (24 ounce) jar marinara sauce
  • 1 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, egg, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and black pepper until combined.
  2. Spread about 1 cup of marinara sauce on the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker.
  3. Arrange half of the ravioli in a single layer over the sauce.
  4. Spread half of the ricotta mixture evenly over the ravioli layer.
  5. Spoon another 1 cup of marinara sauce over the ricotta layer.
  6. Top with half of the mozzarella cheese.
  7. Repeat the layers: remaining ravioli, remaining ricotta mixture, remaining marinara sauce, and top with the remaining mozzarella cheese.
  8. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 3 to 4 hours, or on high for 1.5 to 2 hours, until the ravioli is heated through and the cheese is melted.
  9. Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • You can use meat or spinach ravioli instead of cheese for a different flavor profile.
  • If your sauce is very thick, add 1/4 cup of water to the bottom layer to prevent sticking.
  • This recipe works well as a make ahead crockpot meal; assemble it the night before and refrigerate, then start cooking in the morning on low.
