Lazy Lasagna Perfect For Busy Evenings.

~ quirkymoms486 ~ 4 Comments

If there is one recipe I love the most now that we are gearing up for back to school, it’s an easy one!

I am always looking for quick but delicious dinner idea’s and this lazy lasagna is defiantly one of them that your kids will love too which is always a win for me as mine can be pretty picky.

Obviously you can customize however you want but I like to keep it pretty simple with ingredients.

This also makes really good leftovers so even better in my opinion.

Let’s get started and gather the ingredients!

Ingredients:

1 (24 oz) bag of frozen cheese ravioli

1 lb ground beef

1 (24 oz) jar of pasta sauce

2 cups shredded mozerella

1/2 cup shredded parmesan

1 tablespoon of garlic powder (optional)

1 tablespoon of onion powder (optional)

salt and pepper to taste (optional)

Instructions:

  • Preheat your oven to 400 F and grab a 9×13 pan
  • Brown and drain your ground beef
  • Add your pasta sauce to the ground beef and season to your liking
  • Spread a thin layer of your meat sauce onto the bottom of the pan (about 3/4 cup)
  • Arrange half of the frozen ravioli into a single layer over the sauce
  • Top with half of the remaining meat sauce and half of the mozzarella cheese.
  • Repeat the layers starting with what’s left of the ravioli. Finish by topping with the remaining sauce and cheese.
  • Sprinkle with parmesan cheese if you would like.
  • Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and conitune baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese starts to brown.

I served mine with garlic sticks but you could do a side salad, favorite vegetables or whatever you prefer and enjoy!

I don’t know about you but I loveeeee enchilada’s!

They are so yummy and this happens to be one of the most requested dinners that my husband asks for and that’s saying something for Mr. food critic.

This recipe is so easy and has very minimal ingredients. The prep time doesn’t even take long as well so let’s get into it!

Ingredients

3-4 cups cooked and shredded rotisserie chicken

1 medium onion chopped up

1 teaspoon olive oil

1 cup sour cream

1 large can or two small cans enchilada sauce

3 cups shredded cheese Mexican blend

10 flour tortillas

Preheat your oven to 350 F

In a large pan over medium heat add 1 teaspoon of olive oil and add your onions. Cook until translucent and soft.

Combine chicken and onions in your pan and stir.

Pour 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce over your mixture and stir just enough to coat the mixture.

Add sour cream and stir.

Turn off heat and add 2 cups of shredded cheese and combine until it’s nice and creamy and cheesy.

Pour just enough enchilada sauce over your baking pan to coat the bottom.

Fill up your tortillas. Spoon a little sauce onto it and then add your mixture.

Roll your tortilla and place in the baking dish. Repeat with all until your dish is filled.

Pour the rest of your enchilada sauce on the top of all of your tortillas and also top them with another cup of cheese.

Cover with foil and bake 20-30 min. Remove foil the last 10 minutes of cooking.

Enjoy!

I love this recipe. I usually serve it with some Spanish rice and it’s so good!
