Instructions
- In a medium skillet, cook the Italian sausage over medium heat until browned and cooked through, breaking it into smaller pieces. Drain any excess fat.
- Add the chopped onion and bell peppers to the skillet with the sausage. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
- Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of the slow cooker. Then, arrange a layer of frozen ravioli over the sauce. Spoon a portion of the sausage and pepper mixture over the ravioli, and sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese on top. Continue layering the sauce, ravioli, sausage and peppers, and cheese until all ingredients are used, ending with a layer of cheese on top.
- Sprinkle the dried oregano, basil, garlic powder, and salt and pepper on the top cheese layer. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours, or until the ravioli is tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Allow the lasagna to rest for 10 minutes before serving to help it set and make slicing easier. Enjoy!
