Cheater Lasagna Casserole

Today’s recipe is a great way and faster way to have all the flavors of lasagna without all the fuss. This dish is rich and full of flavor, I used a local ravioli company “Terra Cotta Pasta” if that’s not available use any of your favorite frozen cheese ravioli. This is also a great dish to share! I served this with a salad and garlic bread.

INGREDIENTS

1 pound “hot” Jimmy dean Sausage or 1 pound Italian sausage
28 ounce jar of spaghetti sauce. I used Rao’s brand
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 (8 Oz.) package cream cheese, softened or whipped cream cheese works too!
1/4 cup light sour cream
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
25 ounce package frozen cheese ravioli
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

DIRECTIONS

Pre heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 9×13 inch casserole dish with non stick spray and set aside.
In a large skillet brown the sausage breaking it to crumbles while it cooks, drain the fat from the pan and stir in the spaghetti sauce, heat through the. Set aside.

In a large bowl mix the ricotta cheese, cream cheese, sour cream and Parmesan cheese. Add the frozen ravioli and mix well coating the ravioli. Add the ravioli mixture to the prepared casserole dish spreading the ravioli across the bottom of the dish.
Pour the meat sauce all over the ravioli and top with the remaking cheese.

Bake uncovered for 45 minutes. Allow to cool for just a couple minutes and serve warm.

Enjoy!
