How to cook frozen ravioli bake?

If you like to prepare meals in advance for the week, freezing ravioli bake is a great idea. One way is to assemble the ravioli bake inside a disposable aluminum tray (oven safe and freezer safe).

This way, it will go straight from the freezer to the oven. Then you just need to bake it in a preheated oven (375°F) until the cheese is melted and bubbling. Cooking it from frozen is simple but might require more time in the oven.

What to serve with ravioli bake?

The Ravioli bake recipe itself is a complete meal. However, if you would like to add complements, toasted bread and salads go amazing with it.

Garlic bread complements the flavors, as well as tortillas or a caesar salad. Also, red wines and beers make a good pairing. Not to mention that a chocolate dessert would be the perfect addition to the meal.
