Ingredients
25ouncebag frozen ravioliany variety
24ouncesmarinara or alfredo sauce
2teaspoonsgarlic powder
1teaspoonoregano
1teaspoonbasil
ground pepper to taste
1/2teaspoonred pepper flakes
2-3cupsshredded mozzarella
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Prepare a 9-by-13-inch baking dish by spraying it with cooking spray and set it aside.
Spread about a quarter of the jar of sauce onto the bottom of the dish.
Arrange ravioli in a single layer on top of the sauce.
Spread half of the remaining sauce over top of the ravioli and sprinkle the listed spices evenly over the sauce (I didn't really measure. I just eyeballed it.) Sprinkle on half of the mozzarella.
Layer on the rest of the ravioli (I didn't have quite enough to make a full second layer, so I just spaced them out a bit more than I did on the bottom), spread the rest of the sauce on top, and sprinkle on the rest of the cheese.
Cover the dish in aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
