🍳 Instructions

1. Cook the Meat (optional but best flavor)

1. Brown meat in a skillet.
2. Season with Italian seasoning, garlic, salt, and pepper.
3. Drain fat.
4. Stir in pasta sauce + canned tomatoes.
   (No need to simmer.)

If skipping meat, just mix the sauce and tomatoes together.

2. Assemble in the Slow Cooker

In a greased slow cooker, layer:

1. Sauce
2. Ravioli
3. Mozzarella + Parmesan

Repeat until all ingredients are used, ending with cheese on top.

For extra creamy layers, dot ricotta between ravioli.

You should have 2–3 layers, depending on crockpot size.
