Crockpot Ravioli Lasagna

Introduction

Crockpot Ravioli Lasagna is the ultimate time-saving comfort meal. By combining classic lasagna flavors with the out-of-the-box convenience of frozen ravioli, you get a hearty, bubbling dish with minimal prep and maximum reward. With layers of rich tomato sauce, melted cheese, and savory pasta, this recipe is a crowd-pleaser perfect for weeknight dinners, game days, or easy entertaining.

Why This Crockpot Ravioli Lasagna Stands Out

This recipe delivers that beloved, slow-cooked lasagna flavor without the fuss of boiling noodles, making béchamel, or dirtying a sink full of dishes. The frozen ravioli serve as both the noodle and cheese layer, while your favorite pasta sauce and extra cheese pull everything together. The result: a no-fuss lasagna with gooey, cheesy layers that the whole family will love.

The Secret to Quick, Flavorful Layers

To create hearty, flavorful layers, begin with a high-quality pasta sauce and your favorite frozen ravioli — cheese or meat-filled both work beautifully. A sprinkle of Italian seasoning, a dash of garlic, and a generous topping of mozzarella give this “lazy lasagna” all the classic flavors you expect, with a fraction of the work.

For flawless vegetable prep, chop any additional veggies, like spinach or bell peppers, with the Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper to keep prep time to just minutes.

Layering & Cooking: How to Get that Perfect, Cheesy Finish

Layer your ingredients directly in the crockpot for even cooking and easy clean-up. Start with a base of sauce, follow with a layer of ravioli, then a layer of cheese and any veggies or cooked meat you like. Repeat the layers, finishing with sauce and a thick blanket of mozzarella cheese.

If your crockpot tends to run hot, consider lining it with a sheet of Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll for easy serving and quick cleanup.

Serving Suggestions for Crockpot Ravioli Lasagna

Let the lasagna rest briefly for neater slices. Pair it with a simple salad and garlic bread for a complete Italian-inspired meal. For fresh green sides, prep salad toppings with the Mueller Vegetable Chopper and store them in a Bentgo Salad Container until ready to serve.

Leftovers keep well and make fantastic reheated lunches. Store portions in Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers for best freshness.

Nutritional Information and Serving Size

This recipe yields 6 generous servings. Each serving typically contains approximately 400–500 calories, depending on the ravioli and cheese choices. It’s hearty and filling, so a side salad balances it beautifully.
