Ravioli Lasagna

A serious favorite with my kids, it comes together fairly fast as in on the table in no time.

Ravioli Lasagna

1 lb. ground beef

1/2 tsp. garlic powder

salt and pepper to taste

1 cup grated carrots

1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms (optional)

1 TBSP. olive oil

1 (28 oz.) jar spaghetti sauce

2 (8 oz.) cans tomato sauce

1 (25 oz.) pkg. frozen cheese ravioli, cooked & drained

3 cups (12 oz.) shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Cook beef until no longer pink; drain. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt and pepper; set aside. In a saucepan, cook carrots and mushrooms in olive oil until tender. Stir in the spaghetti and tomato sauces. Spread 1/2 cup sauce in a greased 13×9x2-inch baking dish. Layer with half of the cooked ravioli, spaghetti sauce, beef and cheeses. Repeat layers ending with the cheeses. Cover and bake @ 375 degrees F. for 25-30 minutes. Uncover and bake 10 minutes longer. Remove from oven and let stand for 15 minutes before serving.
