Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 ounces Cheese ravioli (frozen or fresh)
- 4 ounces Low-fat cream cheese
- 1.5 cups Milk
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 3 cups Spinach (fresh, roughly chopped)
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes (halved)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the ravioli according to the package instructions, then drain and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Lower the heat and add the cream cheese to the saucepan. Stir until melted and smooth.
Gradually whisk in the milk until the sauce is creamy. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning.
In a large mixing bowl, gently toss the cooked ravioli with the creamy sauce to coat evenly.
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and spread half of the ravioli mixture into the dish.
Sprinkle half of the chopped spinach and cherry tomatoes over the ravioli.
Add half of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the vegetables.
Repeat the layers with the remaining ravioli, spinach, tomatoes, and mozzarella cheese.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Creamy Light Ravioli Casserole!
