Creamy Pesto Ravioli Bake

As always this is a simple dish that will feed the whole family and leave you with tons of leftovers!! It’s basically a delicious pesto ravioli in the form of lasagna!! Layers of ravioli, chicken, creamy pesto sauce, mozzarella cheese and crunchy bell peppers!! SO YUMMY! You can really use anything in this! Make it vegetarian and leave out the chicken or add in sausage or even just use marinara sauce!! I highly recommend trying this one!!! I hope you all enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 3 lbs cheese ravioli, cooked and drained
  • 1 cup pesto, find my homemade recipe here
