Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Do-Ahead Tip: Cover unbaked lasagna tightly with aluminum foil and refrigerate up to 24 hours or freeze up to two months. Before baking frozen lasagna, thaw in refrigerator overnight. Refrigerated lasagna will need about 10 minutes extra baking time.
  • Tip 2
    Serve With: Accompany lasagna with a frosty glass of lemonade garnished with slices of lemons or limes.
