Mac’s Baked Ravioli Casserole
Mac’s Baked Ravioli Casserole helps soothe Kyra after a nightmare in Silver Shadows. When my kids were younger, and I’d spent a harried day running after them, one of my fantasies was a man who could cooked. Mac fulfilled that fantasy for me.
Mac’s Baked Ravioli Casserole

- 1 can 14.5 oz diced tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium-size onion, chopped fine
- 1 can 8 oz tomato sauce
