Hi there,

This is actually a popular question, so I have a few pages that can help you here.

In short though, you can freeze lasagna before or after cooking it - it's entirely up to you. I prefer to cook it before, then let it cool... as this means it holds its shape really well when freezing.

Then just defrost your lasagna at room temperate (maybe during the day or evening), before popping it in the oven to either cook (20 mins) or warm through (slightly less).

Here's some more info:

And a previous question about freezing lasagna

Do let me know how you get on!

Matt.

PS: Since you love lasagna, you might find my pasta cookbook of interest. It has a whole section of easy-to-print lasagna recipes inside and comes with my exclusive Lasagna 101 guide. Ciao!
