Ingredients

• 2 * 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 * 1 medium onion, chopped
• 3 * 3 cloves garlic, minced
• * Coarse salt and ground pepper
• 1 1/2 * 1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme, or oregano
• 1 * 1 can (28 ounces) whole tomatoes
• 1 * 1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
• 2 * 2 pounds store-bought ravioli
• 1 1/2 * 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 * 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, and season with salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add thyme and tomatoes. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, breaking up tomatoes with spoon, until sauce is thickened and reduced to about 5 1/2 cups, 20 to 25 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, cook ravioli in a large pot of boiling salted water just until they float to the top (pasta will continue to cook in oven). Drain pasta; return to pot.
3. Toss sauce with pasta. Pour pasta into a large gratin dish or 9-by-13-inch baking dish, and sprinkle with cheeses. Bake until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool slightly before serving.
