Ingredients
  

1 package of frozen mini ravioli (choose cheese or marinara flavor)

1 cup marinara sauce (plus extra for dipping)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon olive oil

Fresh basil leaves, for garnish (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ravioli: Begin by cooking the frozen mini ravioli according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain them well and set aside to cool slightly.

    Preheat the Oven: While the ravioli cool, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to facilitate easy cleanup after baking.

      Season the Ravioli: In a large mixing bowl, combine the slightly cooled ravioli with olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss gently until all the ravioli are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.

        Assemble the Bites: Arrange half of the seasoned ravioli on the prepared baking sheet. Using a teaspoon, dollop a small amount of marinara sauce onto each ravioli. Sprinkle generously with shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese. Place another ravioli on top of each, creating a mini sandwich effect.

          Toast the Pizza Bites: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the ravioli are golden brown and crispy on the edges.

            Serving: After baking, carefully remove the bites from the oven and let them cool for about one minute. Arrange them beautifully on a serving platter, and if desired, garnish with fresh basil leaves for a pop of color. Serve warm alongside extra marinara sauce for delicious dipping.
