Ravio-sagne

I have a recipe to share, and let me tell you, friends, that this might be the

easiest recipe ever!

Ravio-sagne is a combo of ravioli and lasagna, both of which are super yummy, right?

Here is what you need:

• 1 jar of marinara sauce (approx. 2 cups)
• 25 oz. package of frozen rectangular cheese ravioli (I bought two 9 oz. packages of Trader Joe's chicken and sausage ravioli, and it all worked out fine)
• 2 1/2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/3 cup finely slivered basil leaves (I forgot to buy basil, but the spice rack that we received as a wedding gift came in handy with dried basil! I hope that those spices don't expire, because my dried basil is nearly 5 years old....)

Did you catch that there are only 4 ingredients???!!!

Preheat oven to 400 degrees, and layer the ingredients in a casserole dish in this order:

• approx 1/2 cup sauce
• layer of frozen ravioli noodles
• another 1/2 cup sauce
• a nice layer of cheese
• basil
• ravioli noodles
• sauce
• cheese
• basil
• ravioli noodles
• sauce
• cheese
• basil

Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Take foil off and bake for another 10 minutes. Cheese should be melted and ravioli should be cooked through.

My mother-in-law and my kids and I all loved it, and Devon had two helpings of left-overs the next night :)

*I must give credit where it is due: I found this recipe in a magazine at the pediatrician's office, simply called Mom, and the published chef is Devin Alexander
