Ravioli, cheese, and marinara layered into an easy, indulgent Italian-style bake.

# The Ingredients You'll Need:

→ Cheese Filling

01 - 8 oz cream cheese, softened
02 - 1 cup sour cream
03 - 1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
04 - 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

→ Main Assembly

05 - 1 (25 oz) package frozen beef ravioli
06 - 3 cups marinara sauce
07 - 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
08 - 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

# Step-by-Step Instructions:

01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. In a mixing bowl, blend softened cream cheese with sour cream, grated parmesan, and Italian seasoning until smooth.
02 - Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce in a 9x13 inch baking dish to prevent sticking and enhance bottom flavor.
03 - Place half of the frozen beef ravioli in an even layer over the marinara. Do not thaw.
04 - Evenly spread half of the cheese mixture over the ravioli, then top with a layer of shredded mozzarella.
05 - Add a second layer of marinara, ravioli, remaining cheese mixture, and finish with mozzarella and grated parmesan on top.
06 - Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 10-15 minutes until golden and bubbly.
07 - Let the lasagna rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to allow the layers to set.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Let the dish rest after baking to achieve clean layers and optimal cheese pull.
02 - Use quality marinara sauce for the best flavor impact.
03 - The recipe is freezer-friendly; assemble ahead and bake from frozen.
04 - A rubber spatula helps spread the cheese mixture evenly.
