Ingredients
- 3/4 lb. ground beef
- ½ teaspoon each: onion powder, dried basil, dried oregano, mustard powder, salt.
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce, doesn’t make it spicy
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, mined
- 24 oz. marinara sauce
- 1/2 cup half and half
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese, divided
- 20 oz. refrigerated ravioli
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
-
Add ground beef to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and crumble it for 3 minutes.Add the seasonings, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and the onions and cook for 5 more minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Tilt the skillet and spoon out any excess grease. Reduce heat to low.
-
Spread 3/4 cup of marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch casserole dish and add the rest to the skillet with the meat. Add the half and half and stir to combine. Remove from heat.
-
Arrange half of the ravioli on the bottom of the casserole dish and top with half of the meat sauce, then top with ½ cup mozzarella cheese.
-
Top with remaining ravioli, then the meat sauce and remaining mozzarella.
-
Cover and bake for 35 minutes. If covering with foil, spray one side with non-stick cooking spray to prevent it from sticking to the cheese while it bakes.
-
Remove cover and broil at 450 to brown the top slightly. It’ll take just 1-2 minutes, watch it closely during this time.
-
Remove from heat and serve!
