Cheesy Ravioli Casserole Recipe

If you have been checking my site out for any length of time, you already know I am a major “cook from scratch” kinda mom. It saves money big time, but I will admit, isn’t always quick on time. I don’t usually make anything from scratch that takes more than about an hour total to prepare (unless its a little prep time the night before). This is a super easy to make, quick on time and low cost casserole that my kids ask for time and time again. It tastes exactly like lasagna, without all the fuss.

Cheesy Ravioli Casserole

1 jar spaghetti sauce
1 pkg. frozen cheese ravioli, cooked and drained
2 c. small curd cottage cheese
4 c. shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 c. grated parmesan cheese

In a 9×13 casserole dish, spread about a half cup of spaghetti sauce on the bottom. On top of the sauce, layer about half of the cheese ravioli, then top with about 1 to 1 1/4 c. sauce, 1 c. cottage cheese and 2 c. mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers again starting with the ravioli. Sprinkle the top with parmesan cheese and bake, uncovered at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes or until bubbly. Allow the dish to stand for about 5-10 minutes before serving.

I know I’m a bit odd, but for some reason I am really not very fond of the recipe for Green Bean Casserole that calls for Soy Sauce. I love soy sauce, so I have no idea why I don’t like that particular recipe, but since I don’t – this is the one I use. I believe it is a recipe originally from French’s.

Traditional Green Bean Casserole Recipe

1 can (10 3/4 oz.) Campbell’s® Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup
1/2 cup milk
1/2 to 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 cups cooked cut green beans
1 1/3 cups French’s French Fried Onions

Mix mushroom soup, milk, black pepper, green beans and 2/3 cup of fried onions in casserole dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or until hot. Remove and stir. Sprinkle with remaining onions. Bake an additional 5 minutes.

Pumpkin French Toast Casserole Recipe

We made this recipe up ourselves one evening in the kitchen when we had a can of pumpkin and we were making our french toast casserole recipe. We decided for a fall treat, it would be nice to make it pumpkin pie french toast and so this recipe was born. I’ve tried it a couple of different ways since we first made it, but this is the easiest and tastiest way to make it. This makes one casserole, but we double it to make two. (remember I’m feeding three teenagers and two preteens)

Overnight Pumpkin French Toast Casserole

1/2 C Butter

12 slices White Bread

1/2 C Brown Sugar

2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

1/4 – 1/2 c. pumpkin

1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract

5 eggs

1 1/2 c Milk

Melt the margarine and pour into a 9×13 pan. Mix the brown sugar and the pumpkin spice seasoning. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk & vanilla together.
Spread a thin layer of pumpkin (as if you were buttering a piece of bread) on six of the slices of bread. Layer the bottom of the 9×13 pan with all six pieces. Next, sprinkle half of the brown sugar and pumpkin spice mixture over the top of the pumpkin that is spread on the bread. Spread a thin layer of the pumpkin over the next six pieces of bread the same way. Pour the egg mixture over the top of all of it and then sprinkle the remaining brown sugar/pumpkin spice mixture over the top.

Cover & refrigerate overnight or at least 6-8 hours. Honestly, the longer the better. In the morning, cover the dish with tinfoil and bake in a 350 degree over for 30 minutes. Remove from oven, uncover the dish and bake an additional 15 more minutes. It should be golden and set.

Remove from oven and serve hot. Sprinkle with some powdered sugar if you want. This can also be served with syrup, butter, whipped cream or just eaten plain. It is delicious!

P.S. We are going to try it with some other “flavors” and I will let you know what we come up with, that actually works and tastes good.
