Assemble the lasagna by adding 1/3 of the sauce to the bottom of a 9×13″ pan. Add half the ravioli, then gently spread the ricotta in an even layer on top. Sprinkle with 1/4 of the mozzarella.
Pour another 1/3 of the sauce on top and then the rest of the ravioli. Pour over the remaining sauce and sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella and parmesan.
Bake for about 20 minutes until the cheese is melted. Bake until golden brown if desired. Sprinkle with basil before serving.
