Servings: 6

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 3 hours 30 minutes (Slow Cooker) / 30 minutes (Stovetop) / 45-50 minutes (Oven)

Ingredients

• 1 pound lean ground beef
• 24 oz jar of spaghetti sauce
• 16 oz frozen ravioli (your choice)
• 16 oz shredded mozzarella cheese

 

Instructions

Slow Cooker Method:

1. Prepare the Slow Cooker:

• Grease the slow cooker with oil or non-stick spray.

2. Layer Ingredients:

• Start with half of the spaghetti sauce, followed by half of the ravioli, ground beef, and mozzarella cheese. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

3. Cook:

• Set the crockpot to cook on high for 3 hours or on low for 5½ to 6 hours until bubbly and cheese is melted.

Stovetop Method:

1. Combine Ingredients:

• In a large skillet, mix ravioli, spaghetti sauce, ground beef, and 1 cup of water.

2. Cook:

• Heat over medium-high until boiling, then reduce to low. Cover and simmer according to ravioli package instructions (about 18 minutes). Stir occasionally, adding water if needed to prevent sticking.

3. Finish:

• Remove from heat, sprinkle remaining mozzarella on top, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes to melt the cheese.

Oven-Baked Method:

1. Preheat Oven:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Layer Ingredients:

• In a baking dish, layer ingredients as instructed for the slow cooker but reserve the final portion of cheese.
