Beef Mince Ravioli Bake

Jump to Recipe

Ravioli baked in a homemade sauce made from tasty beef mince, tomato sauce, herbs and cream cheese, then topped with golden cheese. This easy, family-friendly meal is ideal for busy weeknights.

Baked Mince Tortelini served in the white oven dish it was cooked in on a wooden bench top. A hand with a serving spoon taking out a scoop from the middle.

I don't think you can ever have too many mince and pasta recipes on hand. It's a classic combo because it tastes delicious, is easy to prepare and the kids love it too. Well, most of the time! This meal uses pre-made ravioli, (a type of pasta that has a filling inside) adding extra flavour to the dish.

Ingredient notes:

The ingredients to make Baked Mince Tortelini on a grey bench top.

Ravioli: I used two packets of ravioli, but you can also swap out for tortellini, or even substitute with your favourite plain pasta.
Pasta Sauce: I like this pasta sauce in a can as it has vegetables in it too, but feel free to use fresh pasta sauce, or a can of crushed or sieved tomatoes and add your own vegetables.
Beef Mince: This versatile dish could be made with any type of mince including chicken, pork, lamb or venison. I've gone for classic beef in this version.

Recipe FAQs:

Where do I find ravioli at the supermarket?

Fresh pasta is refrigerated and often near other meal ingredients like pizza bases, garlic bread or fresh soups.

Can this meal be frozen?

This recipe can easily be doubled to make one meal for the freezer. Simply cover the unbaked portion in a dish with tin foil. When completely cooled, place in the freezer for up to three months. Thaw in the fridge overnight and bake at 200°C fan bake until piping hot and the cheese is bubbling.

Could I add anything else to this meal?

Of course! You might like to bulk it out with onion, grated carrot, baby spinach or any vegetables that need using up. It's very versatile.

This meal can also be frozen. Store in an airtight container or freezer bag in the freezer for up to three months. Defrost completely before reheating.

Top tips:

If two packets of ravioli are too much, feel free to substitute half for your favourite pasta.
