Baked Ravioli with Spinach
Baked Ravioli with Spinach combines tender ravioli cooked al dente and layered with tomato sauce, chopped spinach, and melted mozzarella cheese. The dish is assembled in a casserole with alternating layers of ravioli, fresh spinach, and cheese, then baked until bubbly and golden, creating a comforting casserole with rich tomato flavor and creamy cheese.
Ingredients
- 600 g ravioli
- 700 g tomato sauce jarred
- 100 g spinach coarsely chopped
- 300 g mozzarella cheese grated
- salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175° C/350° F in fan mode.
- Place a pot full of water over high heat. Once the water is well boiled, salt and add the ravioli boiling 2 minutes less than the time indicated on the package, so that they come out al dente.
- Spread some tomato sauce in a 28x17cm (11x 7 inches) casserole, place half of the ravioli on top and season with salt and pepper.
- Cover the ravioli with half the spinach, drizzle with a little tomato sauce and sprinkle with half the mozzarella.
- Drizzle with a little more tomato sauce, place the remaining ravioli on top, season with salt and pepper and cover with the remaining spinach.
- Drizzle with the rest of the tomato sauce and sprinkle with the rest of the mozzarella.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, remove from oven, let the ravioli cool for 5 minutes and serve.
Notes
- Boil the ravioli slightly less than package instructions to maintain a firm texture after baking.
