Instructions

In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it up with a fork until fully browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.

Once the beef is cooked, drain any excess fat and return it to the skillet. Sprinkle the onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, basil, rosemary, black pepper, and salt over the meat.
3
Gently mix the spices into the beef, heating for an additional 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
4
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooled meat mixture with the grated Parmesan, Romano, Mozzarella, and Ricotta cheeses. Stir until you have a dense, well-blended filling.
5
Prepare your pasta dough or lay out the wonton wrappers. If using dough, roll it out to your desired thickness.
6
Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the filling onto each ravioli square. Moisten the edges with water, fold over, and press to seal tightly.

Boil water in a large pot and cook the assembled ravioli for 3-5 minutes, until they float to the surface.
