Easy Crockpot Lasagna Ravioli
This easy one-pot meal is an old standby of mine. I first ran it on the site about four years ago, but I have so many more fans and followers now (thanks, guys!) that I thought I should bring it back and give you all a chance to see how it’s done.
So you don’t need to mess around with preparing separate meat, starch, and veggie dishes – it’s all in there.

And like any good one-pot dish, this one is really easy to put together. All you have to do is brown the meat, and then layer everything into the crock:
- Sauce
- Ravioli (straight out of the package – you don’t even need to thaw them)
- Meat
- Cheese
And after this quick one-two-three-four, you just put the lid on, and let everything cook for about four hours on low.
As an extra bonus, this dish is really easy to adapt it to make it veggie-friendly. All you have to do is substitute Morningstar Farms Grillers Veggie Crumbles – or any other ground beef substitute you like – for the beef. Boom, vegetarian.
Quick, easy, one-pot, and veggie-friendly…what more could you possibly ask for?

Easy Crockpot Lasagna Ravioli
INGREDIENTS:
1 lb ground round (or MorningStar Farms Grillers Recipe Crumbles for veg friendly)
1 cup chopped onions
2-4 garlic cloves, minced
1 (24oz) jar of pasta sauce
1 (25oz) package or frozen cheese-filled ravioli(do not thaw)
1 (8oz) package shredded Italian blend cheese
DIRECTIONS:
1. Cook ground round (or veg crumble), onion, and garlic in a large skillet over a medium/high heat, until beef crumbles and is no longer pink. Drain if needed and set aside.
2. Spoon 3/4 cup pasta sauce into bottom of a lightly greased crockpot. Layer half of the ravioli.
3. Next layer with 1/2 the meat mixture.
4. Then top with 1 cup of cheese.
5. Repeat layers, starting with 3/4 cup of sauce, ravioli, meat and end with the remaining 1 cup of cheese.
6. Cover and cook on LOW for 4-6 hours until pasta is tender. Like I said above, the original recipe said 6 hours, but mine was ready to go after 4.5 hours. So test your crock out with this one!

Did You Make This Recipe?

Thanks for the great recipe. I made it exactly as written and crocked it for 5 hours while I was at school. That was about 1 hour too long – it came out a little dry, but still tasty though. I will definitely make this again, but next time I’ll increase the amount of sauce, meat, and cheese and only cook for 4 hours.
Any real changes if I don’t use meat?
No April 🙂
I want to say that I LOVE your recipes. I’ve made so many of them and have not been disappointed! I did make the crockpot ravioli lasagna several times, and although I liked it, it never came out quite the way I wanted it to. Tonight I tried it with adding a can of undrained diced to patties, and cooking it on low for 4 hours (so a 10 hour low setting). It was PERFECT! The tomatoes added the moisture I was lacking the past few times I cooked it. I also used ground turkey instead of beef.
Thank you for always sharing your recipes, they are a hit in my family!
Made this tonight for my family and they loved it! I did put a little cottage cheese on a layer so it wouldn’t dry out any, It was perfect! My boys went even had seconds! Thanks for the wonder recipe! This is now a family favorite!
What size crock pot do you need to make this recipe? Or would you be able to cut it down for less servings? I have a small crock pot for only 2 people. I’m looking forward to making this!
You can cut the recipe in half and you should be fine Shay.
