Preparation
  1. In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until it’s nicely browned. Drain any excess fat.

  2. Next, add half of the remaining meat sauce, followed by half of both the mozzarella and cheddar cheeses.
  3. Repeat the layers, finishing with a generous sprinkle of cheese on the top.
Cooking
  1. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours, or until everything is heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbling.
  2. Serve hot, and watch it disappear!

Notes

This ravioli lasagna pairs wonderfully with a simple side salad or garlic bread for an extra touch of comfort. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to two months.
