Ingredients

Scale
  • 450 grams Italian sausage
  • 700 milliliters marinara sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 200 grams shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 65 grams chopped bacon
  • Pepperoni slices, as desired
  • 710 grams frozen cheese ravioli

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).
  2. Dice the yellow onion and chop the bacon if it is not pre-chopped.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
  4. Add the Italian sausage to the skillet. Cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until the sausage is browned throughout. Drain excess grease if necessary.
  5. Stir in the Italian seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, and freshly ground black pepper. Pour in the marinara sauce and add the chopped bacon and desired pepperoni slices. Mix well to combine.
  6. Gently stir the frozen cheese ravioli into the skillet mixture until they are evenly coated with the sauce.
  7. Transfer the mixture into a large baking dish and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the top. Feel free to add extra bacon or pepperoni if preferred.
  8. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Remove the foil and place the dish under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes, until the topping is golden and crisp.
  10. Allow to cool slightly before serving. Present warm for optimal taste and texture.

Notes

For added flavor, consider sautéing minced garlic along with the onion. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can freeze the unbaked dish for up to 2 months. Add vegetables or use other cheese types for variety.
