Prep: 15 min · Cook: 35 min · Yield: 6 · Method: Oven

Ingredients

• 1 pound italian sausage
• 24 ounces refrigerated cheese ravioli
• 24 ounces marinara sauce
• 5 ounces fresh spinach
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon italian seasoning

Cooking instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly oil a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. (about 5 min) — 375°F
2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Remove the sausage from its casing, add it to the skillet, and cook, breaking it into small pieces, until browned and the center reaches 160°F. Drain excess fat if needed. (about 8 min) — 160°F
3. Spread about one-third of the marinara in the baking dish. Layer on half of the ravioli, half of the spinach, half of the sausage, one-third of the remaining marinara, and one-third of the mozzarella. Sprinkle with half of the garlic powder and Italian seasoning. (about 5 min)
4. Repeat with the remaining ravioli, spinach, sausage, marinara, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Finish with the remaining mozzarella. (about 5 min)
5. Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake until the ravioli are tender and the sauce is bubbling, about 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until the cheese is melted and lightly golden, 8 to 10 minutes more. (about 35 min) — 375°F
6. Rest for 5 minutes before serving. (about 5 min)
