Join Fresh Dish Foodie, Dylan, as he creates this simple dish using the slow cooker! Although it only uses five ingredients, it will still taste like your favorite homemade Italian dish. Check out Slow Cooker Meatball Ravioli Casserole.
This dish is all about layering - think about it like a lasagna!
Once layered, the dish will cook on low for 6-8 hours, just long enough for a work shift or a day doing some yard work. You’ll walk in the door and smell your tasty dinner waiting for you.
20 minutes before you’re ready to serve, add your cheese. Don’t add this in too early so it stays nice and stretchy.
Pair with wine, breadsticks and a side salad! Get the full recipe below:
