Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 bag of frozen cheese ravioli (25 oz)
  • 1 lb ground beef browned and drained
  • 3 cans of crushed tomatoes (15 oz each)
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon garlic salt
  • 4 cups mozzarella cheese
  • ΒΌ cup parmesan cheese

Equipment

  • Slow Cooker
  • large skillet
  • Wooden spoon or spatula

Method
 

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef completely, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Stir the crushed tomatoes, Italian seasoning, and garlic salt into the browned beef. Let the mixture simmer for a few minutes to combine the flavors.
  3. Spoon a thin layer of the meat sauce onto the bottom of your 6-quart crockpot.
  4. Layer half of the frozen cheese ravioli on top of the sauce, ensuring even coverage.
  5. Sprinkle 2 cups of mozzarella cheese over the ravioli.
  6. Repeat the layering process, starting with another layer of sauce, then ravioli, followed by mozzarella cheese. End with a final layer of sauce.
  7. Top with the remaining mozzarella cheese and sprinkle the parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
  8. Cover and cook on LOW for 3-4 hours, or until the ravioli are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Once cooked, turn off the heat and let the lasagna rest for 15 minutes before serving. This helps the layers set.
  10. Scoop, serve, and enjoy with a side salad or garlic bread!

Notes

Pro tip: For easy cleanup, line your crockpot with a disposable slow cooker liner or give it a thorough grease with non-stick spray.
