Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil.
In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, garlic powder, dried Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.
Spread 1/3 of the marinara sauce evenly on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Arrange a single layer of frozen ravioli over the marinara sauce, ensuring the edges just touch but do not overlap too much.
Spread half of the ricotta cheese mixture over the ravioli layer in an even layer.
Sprinkle 1/3 of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the ricotta layer.
Repeat the layers: spread another 1/3 of marinara sauce, a layer of ravioli, and the remaining ricotta mixture.
Sprinkle another 1/3 of the mozzarella cheese on top of the second ricotta layer.
Add the final layer: spread the last 1/3 of marinara sauce, a layer of ravioli, and finish with the remaining mozzarella cheese.
Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese evenly over the top layer.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
After 25 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Remove the lasagna from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Sprinkle freshly chopped basil over the top before serving for a fresh, aromatic touch.
Slice and serve hot. Enjoy your quick and delicious Lazy Ravioli Lasagna!
