The best part about this recipe is that you can completely customize it with your favorite kind of ravioli – from lobster ravioli to artichoke ravioli. The sky is the limit! I kept this meatless though with Trader Joe’s four cheese ravioli, my absolute favorite. And with some leftover marinara sauce and cream cheese for that melt-in-your-mouth creaminess, you can have this comforting dish on your table in no time!

Ingredients

  • 1 16-ounce package cheese-filled ravioli
  • 2 cups marinara sauce, homemade or store-bought
  • cup cream cheese, cubed
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon dried parsley
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ¼ cup basil leaves, chiffonade

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil an 8×8 baking dish or coat with nonstick spray.
  • In a large pot of boiling water, cook ravioli just until tender, about 2-3 minutes; drain well.
  • Combine marinara sauce and cream cheese in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until cream cheese has melted, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in thyme and parsley.
  • Spread ravioli into the prepared baking dish. Top with marinara mixture and sprinkle with mozzarella. Place into oven and bake until cheese has melted, about 20 minutes.
  • Serve immediately, garnished with Parmesan and basil, if desired.
