What You'll Need To Make This Recipe

• 1 to 1½ pound ground beef (85/15)
• 36 ounces tomato sauce  - choose your favorite sauce
• 12 ounces Mozzarella cheese  - shredded
• 22 ounces frozen Cheese Ravioli

Variations and Additions

I've given you the EASIEST version of this recipe. But like most lasagna recipes, you can tweak it a little to make it your own. Here are some ideas.

• Use a little less Mozzarella cheese and add in 2-3 ounces of grated Parmesan cheese.
• Use ground turkey, ground chicken, or ground sausage instead of ground beef.
• A delicious combination, a slightly meatier combination is to mix ½ pound of ground sausage with 1 pound beef.

How To Make Lazy Lasagna

• Preheat the oven to 400° Fahrenheit.

BROWN THE BEEF

• Brown ground beef in a large skillet. Drain and remove excess fat.
• Add pasta sauce to the brown beef and bring to simmer. Once fully heated, set aside.

ASSEMBLY

• Spread thin layer of the beef mixture onto a the bottom of a 9x13 casserole dish.
• Top with a layer of frozen ravioli. Spread another layer of the beef mixture and finish with a second layer of frozen ravioli. Add the remaining beef mixture on to of the second layer of ravioli. Top with shredded cheese.

BAKE

• Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes at 400° Fahrenheit.
• Remove the aluminum foil and continue to bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is golden-brown and bubbly. Serve and enjoy.

Recipe Success Tips

To serve our Lazy Lasagna we like to toast some good bread. A few slices of our favorite bread such as Ciabatta, Foccacia, or Rye go perfectly well with this lasagna.

I love adding a simple salad to every meal. I recommend a simple salad like Oma's German Cucumber, Salad, Greek Salad, or our chopped German Tomato Salad. Any of these will be most delicious.
