Hola Amigos! Once in a while we all deserve a break from the kitchen, take a few shortcuts but at the same achieve great and delicious results. This is that kind of recipe. Using frozen ravioli of any kind you would be able to create this lasagna in no time and great taste.
It freezes wonderfully so you will probably want to bake 2 and freeze 1 for another lazy day.
You put together your lasagna the same way you would a regular one. Cover it up, bake and enjoy!
You know you have done a great job when you can cut your lasagna and see all the layers you carefully put together come out so pretty!
No one can complain there is not enough cheese on this lasagna! Add more veggies to yours by using spinach raviolis instead. Delicious!
Serve it with garlic bread or a green salad. This one is a main dish in itself
Here is the recipe for you friends. Enjoy and remember everything tastes better with a Pinch of Love.
Besitos,
Lizy

Oh Lizy, you share the best recipes! This ravioli lasagna recipe sure does look easy and so delicious. Thanks for sharing another great recipe!
ReplyDeleteWhat's funny is your food photo credit is kinda telling us to just dip the lasagna in chocolate...Haha!! Looks delicious :)
ReplyDeleteI know..LOL...I have to do something about that even though I love chocolate y don't think it goes well with lasagna, maybe after for dessert :) ! Thank You for stopping by!
DeleteI love lasagna and this recipe is a nice twist on an old favourite. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThis lasagna looks scrumptious! Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Ritchil!
DeleteI never thought about using ravioli as lasagna, but that would make it really easy. (I'm all about easy food!) I'd love for you to share this for Food on Friday at Tales of a Pee Dee Mama.
ReplyDeleteIt is super easy Tamara and it cuts a lot the cooking time, which I love
DeleteOk, seriously what a great idea. Kinda jealous I didnt think of it first. Looks delicious! :)

Thank You Sharon! I shared your chocolate cake recipe today on my page...chocolate lovers have to stick together, lol Thank you hun, have a great day!
DeleteThe best thing about blogging is finding inspiration. I love your ravioli lasagna. I would never think to make this either but it's so great for the hectic days of back to school. Cook once and then there is lunch and enough for dinner leftovers too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this on Foodie Friends Friday this week.

I know Joanne! I love that too! and yes this is the perfect recipe for busy back to school days or work weeks! Bake 2 freeze 1 that's what I always say! Thank You so much for stopping by, always a pleasure to share my experiments with you guys!
DeleteHow awesome is this?!! I have to try it!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jen!
DeleteDefinitely gonna have to try this. Found you through the Tidy Mom link up. I was laughing at myself when wondering why I would dip the ravioli in chocolate and then I looked at your blog title :) Love it!
ReplyDeleteLOL...that is so funny Elizabeth...I know it looks so odd...I have to do something about it, I don't know maybe make a little logo or something...I didn't get it at first, but then I'm like...OHHHHH...lol...thanks for visiting and even though everything is better with chocolate I don't think raviolis is one of them...maybe for dessert after! :) Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteThis looks really delicious and looks pretty easy to make! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteIt is Theresa, Thank You for your visit!
DeleteWhat a fun twist on a classic favorite. I'd love it with Spinach ravioli, and the guys would love it with a meat sauce. My daughter doesn't like ravioli or lasagna, can you believe that??? I know she's mine though...she looks just like me.;)
ReplyDeleteI saw this in a magazine once and did a fly by the seat of my pants version. It was ok but I never made it again. This version looks much better. Going to try it soon!
ReplyDeleteOMGoodness! I must try this! It just looks fabulous. I dread making lasagna because of all the messing with the noodles. Thank you for posting this!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!

You are right. I do deserve a break now and then! I like your comment that the flavor of the lasagna can be changed by using a different ravioli. Clever!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up w/ See Ya in the Gumbo this week.
I have never seen this before, it looks wonderful! I bet my husband and son would go crazy over this. It looks easy, yet spectacular. I am pinning this and will definitely try this.
