Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 oz Frozen cheese ravioli
- 24 oz Marinara sauce
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 1 Yellow onion, diced
- 2 tsp Minced garlic
- 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp Dried Italian seasoning
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 tbsp Fresh basil (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
Add ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Drain excess grease if necessary.
In the crock pot, pour a thin layer of marinara sauce to coat the bottom.
Spread half of the frozen ravioli in an even layer on top of the marinara sauce.
Layer half of the cooked ground beef mixture on top of the ravioli, followed by a third of the shredded mozzarella cheese.
Add a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese and a pinch of Italian seasoning.
Pour half of the remaining marinara sauce evenly over the layers. Repeat the layering process: ravioli, ground beef, shredded mozzarella, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, and marinara sauce.
Sprinkle the final third of shredded mozzarella cheese and any remaining Parmesan cheese on top.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on LOW for 4 hours, or until the ravioli is tender and the cheese is fully melted.
Turn off the crock pot and let the dish rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh basil (if desired) and serve hot.
