This Ravioli Lasagna is the easiest way to make lasagna. All you need is ravioli, ground beef, pasta sauce, cheese, and Italian seasoning. It makes 6 servings, which is perfect for feeding the family. You can even make it ahead of time and pop it into the oven when you're hungry.
Ingredients & Substitutions
- Ground Beef - I like to use lean (90/10) ground beef so there's little to no fat to drain. You can also swap in 12 oz of Italian sausage for extra flavor.
- Italian Seasoning - A quick way to season the meat without measuring out multiple spices.
- Marinara Sauce - Use your favorite jarred sauce. I like Rao's Arrabbiata Spicy Marinara for its flavor and texture.
- Refrigerated Cheese Ravioli - I used Rana 4 Cheese Ravioli in this recipe. If you only have frozen ravioli, that works too-just follow the frozen ravioli instructions in the notes below.

How to Make Lasagna Ravioli Bake
Step 1 | Brown the Ground Beef
Cook the beef with Italian seasoning over medium-high heat until browned, breaking it up as it cooks.
Step 2 | Assemble the Ravioli Lasagna
Layer ¼ of the sauce, half the ravioli, half the beef, ½ cup cheese, another ¼ sauce, remaining ravioli, and then the rest of the beef, sauce, and cheese.
Step 3 | Bake
Bake for 30-35 minutes, until bubbly and the cheese is melted. Let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Using Frozen Ravioli
If you want to use frozen ravioli, add 10-15 minutes to the bake time and cover with foil for the first 25 minutes. Uncover and bake until hot and bubbly.
Make It Ahead of Time!
Assemble up to a day in advance, cover, and refrigerate. Bake straight from the fridge-just add 5-10 extra minutes.
