Creamy White Ravioli Bake with Italian Sausage and Spinach
This creamy white ravioli bake layers Alfredo sauce, Italian sausage, spinach, and cheese for a cozy, semi-homemade weeknight dinner that’s ready in 30 minutes.
Creator: Leslie Stokes

There’s something so comforting about pasta night — especially when it takes less than 30 minutes to throw together and tastes like something you’d order at a cozy Italian restaurant. This Creamy White Ravioli Bake is my go-to when the week gets busy and I still want dinner to feel a little special.
The best part? It’s semi-homemade. You get all that cheesy, saucy comfort without making a single thing from scratch. I used Wildgrain’s Butternut Squash Ravioli, which comes frozen and cooks up beautifully — soft, flavorful, and perfectly portioned. If you haven’t tried Wildgrain yet, they’re one of my favorite freezer staples for bread, pasta, and pastries. You can even use my code LESLIE to save $30 off your first box.
Why You’ll Love This Recipe
Fast & Easy: Just layer, bake, and serve.
Family-Friendly: My kids love anything with pasta and cheese, and the spinach sneaks in an extra veggie.
Customizable: Use any ravioli you love — chicken, spinach, mushroom, or cheese all work.
Cozy & Crowd-Pleasing: It’s rich, creamy, and reheats beautifully for leftovers or meal prep.
Make It Your Own
You can mix things up depending on what you have:
Swap the sausage for rotisserie chicken or ground turkey for a lighter version.
Add in sautéed mushrooms or roasted red peppers for extra flavor.
Use a homemade Alfredo if you’re feeling ambitious — but Rao’s is my secret shortcut every time.

Serving Ideas
I love serving this ravioli bake with a quick side salad to balance the richness. Here are a few favorites:
Simple Arugula Salad: Toss with lemon juice, olive oil, parmesan, and cracked black pepper.
Caesar Salad: Classic and crisp with homemade croutons.
Fall Harvest Salad: Mixed greens, apples, walnuts, and balsamic glaze.
And don’t forget a slice of Wildgrain sourdough or garlic bread on the side for soaking up that creamy sauce.
This creamy white ravioli bake checks every box: quick, family-friendly, comforting, and full of flavor. Whether you’re using Wildgrain’s ravioli or your favorite store brand, it’s one of those “looks fancy, secretly easy” dinners that’ll stay in your weeknight rotation.
So pour a glass of wine, toss together a side salad, and enjoy the coziest 30-minute dinner ever.

Meal Prep & Storage Tips
This bake reheats beautifully. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3–4 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave — add a splash of milk or Alfredo to bring the sauce back to life.
You can even assemble it ahead of time in the morning, refrigerate, and pop it in the oven when you’re ready for dinner.

Creamy White Ravioli Bake with Italian Sausage and Spinach
Ingredients
- 1 10–12 oz package butternut squash ravioli (or any filled ravioli – I used Wildgrain)
- 1 jar 15 oz Rao’s Alfredo sauce (or a homemade)
- 1 lb Italian sausage mild or spicy
- 2 cups fresh spinach roughly chopped
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- Optional garnish: chopped parsley or red pepper flakes
Let's Make It
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the Italian sausage until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat.
- Spray a 9x13 casserole dish with avocado oil or cooking spray. Spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce on the bottom.
- Add a single layer of ravioli, followed by half of the sausage and spinach. Spoon more Alfredo sauce over the top.
- Repeat the layers, ending with Alfredo sauce, then sprinkle mozzarella and parmesan over the top.
- Bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with parsley or a pinch of red pepper flakes if you like a little kick.
