Time-saving being the mother of a new mom's invention, I assembled this dish once for a weeknight dinner that I could put together with one hand and hold a baby on my hip with the other. That baby is now five but the dish remains a go-to favorite around my house.

    You can personalize this casserole with different flavors of sauce and ravioli fillings. We really enjoy a creamy tomato or vodka sauce with chicken ravioli, too.
