Ravioli Casserole Recipe

Ingredients:
1 pkg. (25 oz.) frozen cheese ravioli
1/4 c. butter, cubed
1/4 c. all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
2 c. milk
1/4 c. white wine or vegetable broth
1/2 c. minced fresh basil
3 c. (12 oz.) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided
3/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese, divided
2 1/2 c. marinara or spaghetti sauce

Directions:
Cook ravioli according to package directions.

Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, melt butter. Stir in the flour, salt and nutmeg until smooth; gradually add milk and wine. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1 minute or until thickened. Remove from the heat. Stir in the basil, 1 cup mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.

Drain ravioli; toss with sauce mixture. Transfer to a greased 13x9 inch baking dish. Top with 1 cup mozzarella cheese and marinara sauce; sprinkle with remaining cheeses.

Cover and bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. Uncover; bake 5-10 minutes longer or until bubbly. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving.
