Lasagna for 2

My husband and I love lasagna.  When I make a full 13X9 pan it is a lot of food for the 2 of us.  I had this incredibaly brilliant idea last time I made lasagna and it worked out wonderfuly.
Line 3 or 4 loaf pans, the kind you make bread in, with plastic wrap.  Leave overhang on all sides.
Layer the lasagna in the loaf pans one sheet of lasagna fits perfectly in the pan.  Continue layering just as you always do. 
When you have used all the noodles and all the rest of the ingredients fold over the plastic wrap, pulling up so that you make sure the plastic is not trapped in any folds. 
Freeze the lasagna.  When they are frozen pop the lasagna out of the pans and wrap tightly in aluminum foil or more plastic.
When you want to cook a lasagna pull off the wrapping and pop into the loaf pan and bake.  I have baked from frozen or allowed to thaw over night in the refrigerator. 
This is great for portion control as well.  One loaf pan makes plenty for the 2 of us, a bit larger portion for him and just enough for me.

Re: Lasagna for 2

What a great idea!!!  I will have to give that a try.  Sounds like a quick way to serve up dinner as well.


Thanks for the suggestion.

Re: Lasagna for 2

I am new to freezing food. Is this recipe not cooked before it is frozen?


How does the cheese cook after being frozen?


 


Thanks

Re: Lasagna for 2

For me, I don't cook it before freezing. Cheese melts well!

Let us know after you try it!

Re: Lasagna for 2

GREAT TIP Yes  NO BOIL NOODLES WORK GREAT.  BARILLA ARE THE ONES I USE.  I CAN MAKE THE FASTEST LASAGNA ON THE PLANET.  AT LEAST I THINK SO!
