Lightly breaded and deep-fried, ravioli goes to a new level in this nacho-like appetizer. Kids and grown-ups can’t get enough of the crispy, cheesy, flavorful crowd pleasers.—Robert Doornbos, Jenison, Michigan

Ingredients

1 package (25 ounces) frozen cheese ravioli
1 package (25 ounces) frozen sausage ravioli
3 eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups seasoned bread crumbs
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon garlic salt
Oil for deep-fat frying
3/4 cup Alfredo sauce
3/4 cup spaghetti sauce
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
5 green onions, sliced
1 can (3.8 ounces) sliced ripe olives, drained
Additional spaghetti sauce, optional

Directions

Cook ravioli according to package directions. Drain and pat dry. Place eggs in a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, pepper flakes, pepper and garlic salt. Dip ravioli in the eggs, then bread crumb mixture.
In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry ravioli, a few at a time, for 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
Arrange ravioli in an ungreased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Spoon sauces over ravioli; sprinkle with cheddar cheese.
Bake at 350° for 3-5 minutes or until cheese is melted. Sprinkle with onions and olives. Serve immediately with additional spaghetti sauce if desired. Yield: 6-1/2 dozen.
