Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 F and lightly oil a 3-quart baking dish.
-
If using fresh ravioli, start boiling a large pot of water and cook according to package directions, then drain thoroughly. Frozen ravioli does not require pre-cooking.
-
Combine ricotta cheese with 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese in a small bowl.
-
Spread 1 cup marinara sauce in the prepared dish, then layer with half of the ravioli and another 1 cup marinara sauce.
-
Evenly spoon the ricotta mixture over the sauce, then top with 1 to 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese.
-
Add the remaining ravioli, then top with the remaining mozzarella and 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese.
-
Bake fresh ravioli uncovered for 30-40 minutes until browned and bubbling. For frozen ravioli, bake covered for 35 minutes, then uncover and bake for an additional 20-30 minutes until browned.
-
Let the casserole stand for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with basil and extra Parmesan, if desired.
