An Italian Lovers Dream

d

This Italian dish satisfied all my cravings at one time! Give it try and invite some friends over cause it makes one big dish!!

1 package of frozen cheese ravioli (target brand are fantastic)

1/2 package of cut leaf defrosted spinach squeezed dry

1 jar of Bertolli's garlic Alfredo sauce

1/2 can artichokes

8 sun dried tomato halves chopped

1/2 c of half and half

1-16oz container of ricotta cheese

1 lb of lean ground round

1 jar of Bertolli Tomato basil pasta sauce

1 can of diced tomatoes

1/2 c of Parmesan cheese

1 8oz block of real mozzarella cheese cut into cubes

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Get out your 9x13 baking dish and spray with a little Pam. Now line it with the frozen ravioli and pour over your jar of Alfredo sauce and add your spinach, artichokes, half and half and sun dried tomato and stir this all up well and then spread it out in a nice layer in the bottom of the pan. sit this in the oven and let it start the baking process. Now let fry up the meat in a pan and when its all brown and done add your tomato sauce and diced tomatoes and let sit and get hot together. Pull back out your ravioli from the oven and take your ricotta cheese and make table spoon dollops across the pan all over the place and then take a spatula and spread it the best you can. Layer on top of all of this your meat mixture and spread it out evenly. Now you take those cubes of  mozzarella cheese and you poke it in stratigiclly all through your layered dish. Cover with foil and bake for about 45 min. After 45 min. you can uncover it and then sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and bake for another 15 minutes.  When you remove it from the oven let sit of 5 min. and get you some salad and garlic bread ready to go! this stuff is super rich and fabulous! Hope you enjoy it!!!
