Ingredients:
- 1 jar (24oz, 680g) “Bertolli” traditional marinara sauce
- 1 20-oz package “Buitoni” four cheese ravioli
- 8 oz cooked chicken breast (diced)
- 1 ½ cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 8×8-inch or 9×9-inch baking dish by lining with foil or spraying with nonstick cooking spray.

- Top with another cup of marinara sauce, followed by the remainder of the ravioli. Top with the rest of the marinara and the remainder of the grated cheeses.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the cheese is melted and golden. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or basil if desired.
Notes:
- Time saver tip: use pre-cooked chicken breast, such as rotisserie chicken or “Tyson” frozen grilled and ready chicken breast chunks (defrosted).
