This Lazy Ravioli Lasagna is the easiest way to get all the cozy, cheesy flavors of lasagna with just five ingredients and hardly any prep. Perfect for busy weeknights—and you can even make it ahead and pop it into the oven when you're ready.

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.

Ingredients

▢ 1 pound lean ground beef 90/10
▢ 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
▢ 1 25 oz jar marinara sauce
▢ 20 oz package refrigerated cheese ravioli I like Rana 4 Cheese Ravioli
▢ 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the ground beef and Italian seasoning. Cook until browned and no longer pink, breaking it up as it cooks.
Assemble the lasagna in a 9x9-inch baking dish in this order:
Spread ¼ of the marinara sauce on the bottom.
Add half the ravioli in a single layer.
Add half of the cooked ground beef.
Sprinkle with ½ cup mozzarella cheese.
Spoon another ¼ of the sauce on top.
Add the remaining ravioli in a single layer.
Top with the rest of the beef. Pour on the remaining sauce.
Finish with the remaining 1½ cups mozzarella cheese.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, until bubbly and the cheese is melted.
Let it rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Using frozen ravioli: Add an extra 10-15 minutes to the bake time, and cover the dish loosely with foil for the first 25 minutes so the top doesn’t overbrown before the ravioli cooks through. Then uncover and bake until hot and bubbly.

Make it ahead: You can assemble this up to a day in advance. Cover and refrigerate, then bake when ready (add 5-10 minutes to the bake time if it's going straight from fridge to oven).
