The rule for dump dinners is that all ingredients are dumped into a casserole dish; no chopping or slicing, or browning – everything goes in just as it comes from the fridge, freezer, or can. This easy Ravioli Dump Dinner is quick to put together, and doesn’t break any of the rules. You can also vary some of the ingredients, i.e. substitute a package of frozen broccoli for the spinach, or break the rules a little and use grated or sliced zucchini when your garden is overrun. You can also substitute 97% lean ground beef for the ground turkey. Or, you can make a vegetarian version and leave out the turkey. You can choose to use cheese ravioli or beef ravioli, or use frozen tortellini.

This is an easy dish to serve on a weeknight, or when you’re expecting a crowd. I use my homemade marinara sauce from the Italian Marinara Module, or Shortcut Instant Pot Marinara Module, but if you are in a hurry and don’t have homemade sauce in the freezer, feel free to use canned or bottled sauce from the grocery store.
This dish is yummy served with a good tossed salad and crusty bread or Fabulous Five Minute Foccacia.
