How to Make Not Lasagna
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spray an 8-inch square glass baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- Spread 1/2 cup of jarred spaghetti sauce evenly on the bottom of the dish.
- In a large skillet, brown 1 pound of ground beef over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon.
- Drain off any excess grease and return the beef to the skillet.
- Stir in the remaining 2 cups of jarred spaghetti sauce, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt.
- Simmer for 5 minutes.
- Layer half of a 1 (15 ounce) package of cheese ravioli over the sauce in the baking dish.
- Spread half of the beef mixture over the ravioli and top with 1 cup (8 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese.

- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly. Cheese should be melted and golden brown.
- Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
