Ingredients
  

1 package of frozen mini ravioli (cheese or marinara-flavored)

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 package instructions. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.

    Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

      Season the Ravioli: In a large mixing bowl, toss the cooked ravioli with olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well-coated.

        Assemble the Bites: Place half of the ravioli on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon about a teaspoon of marinara sauce onto each ravioli, then sprinkle with shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese. Top each with another ravioli to create a mini sandwich.

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

            Serving: Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute. Arrange on a serving platter and garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired. Serve warm with extra marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
