spinach ravioli bake

from the Taste of Home Busy Family Cookbook.

dinner was good and simple.

lettuce salad:  again, from the garden!  woo-hoo!

side:  cottage cheese for extra protien

spinach ravioli bake:
2 C spaghetti sauce
1 pkg frozen ravioli
2 C shredded mozzarella cheese
1 pkg frozen, chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1/4 C grated parm cheese

Preheat oven to 350.
Grease a shallow 2 qt baking dish.
Coat bottom with sauce.
Top with ravioli, then mozzarella, then spinach, then parm.
Repeat layers.

Bake, uncovered, for 40-45mins.

Yields 4-6 servings.

Thoughts:
Travis and I both really liked this dish, although I think I'll use a little less spinach next time.  This dish was pretty cheap:  $1 bag of Kroger chopped spinach, my homemade sauce (it costs about $1.15 to make), cheese for $1.50 and the ravioli for $3.50ish.  So that's about $2 a serving.
Also, Bonnie, next time you make this thin out your sauce a little bit so it goes farther!
