Lazy Lasagna
This Lazy Lasagna recipe is the one you need when you want the delicious comforting flavors of a traditional lasagna but you don't have the energy to prepare it!
My family love a lasagne for dinner, we love lasagna roll ups and we even love my Mexican Lasagna, but some days (especially at the end of the week) I just don't have the energy to prep a lasagne from scratch.
Why This Recipe Is Great For Busy Parents
- Only 5 minutes Prep Time
- Four Ingredients
- No need to boil, drain or pre-cook any of the ingredients
Ingredients you will need
- Pasta Sauce
- Ravioli
- Parmesan cheese (grated)
- Mozzarella cheese (grated)
Ingredient Notes and Substitutes
- Pasta Sauce: Use your favourite store bought spaghetti sauce or marinara sauce.
- Ravioli: Choose store bought fresh filled pastas, they do not need to be ravioli, tortellini also works well. Choose your favourite flavour. I used a spinach an cheese ravioli. I have made this recipe successfully with gluten free ravioli. You can also use frozen ravioli.
- Cheese: I like to use a mix of parmesan cheese for its flavour and mozzarella for its melting ability but you can use any grated cheese. I have used a tasty cheddar (sharp cheddar) and Colby cheese successfully.
