Italian Style Ravioli Lasagna Part 2

Last January I tried this delish one dish meal again.  Fabulous!!! I've switched up the ingredients but it was still yummy! Awesome once again! You must try this...I did and continue to make it whenever I'm craving for it and it fits in my budget!

Ingredients:

2 pks of Family size frozen Sausage Ravioli
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried cilantro
1 tsp paprika
2 tsps minced garlic (Don't used the garlic powder if your using the minced garlic.  I should have taken that out of the picture.  Sorry.)
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 Tbsps EVOO
1 1/2 to 2 lbs ground sirloin, pork and veal
2 jars of spaghetti Sauce or homemade
1 red pepper, diced
1 green pepper, diced
1 onion, diced

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bring a pot of water to boil, season heavily with salt and some EVOO.

While your waiting for the water to boil, saute your onions, green & red peppers in the heated sauce pan with EVOO.  Then add the minced garlic...cook for about 1 to 2 minutes.  In a frying pan add the meat mixture and brown up the meat.  A few minutes before you finish cooking the meat mixture add the sauteed veggies to the pan and mix well.  Remove the meat mixture to a strainer and drain the grease.  Return meat mixture to the frying pan, pour in the sauce, mix and simmer for about 4 minutes, until bubbly.


Cook Ravioli for about 6 minutes, until almost cooked through. Drain and lay flat one a plate to avoid them from sticking together. Set aside until ready to assemble the lasagna.  Pour some sauce to the bottom of the baked dish. Put some ravioli on top of sauce, then cheese, and more sauce. Repeat method 2 more times! After the last layer of ravioli, pour more sauce and then finish off with the rest of the cheese on top. Bake for 10 minutes until cheese is bubbly.





I served it with garlic bread and salad.  Yummy!




Enjoy
