FAQ About Lasagna

To reheat leftover lasagna, there are a few methods you can choose from based on your preference and available equipment. Here are three common methods for reheating lasagna:

Oven method:

• a. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
• b. Place the leftover lasagna in an oven-safe dish or on a baking sheet.
• c. Cover the dish with foil to prevent excessive browning.
• d. Bake for approximately 15-20 minutes or until the lasagna is heated through. You can remove the foil during the last few minutes of baking to allow the cheese to get slightly browned and crispy, if desired.
• e. Remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, and then serve.

Microwave method:

• a. Place a single serving or a portion of leftover lasagna on a microwave-safe plate.
• b. Cover the lasagna with a microwave-safe cover or microwave-safe plastic wrap to prevent splattering.
• c. Heat the lasagna in the microwave on medium power or at 50% power for 2-3 minutes.
• d. Check the internal temperature and stir the lasagna halfway through the heating process to ensure even heating.
• e. Continue to heat in short intervals until the lasagna is heated through.
• f. Allow it to cool for a minute or two before serving.

Stovetop method:

• a. Cut the leftover lasagna into individual portions.
• b. Preheat a non-stick skillet or a skillet coated with a little oil over medium-low heat.
• c. Place the lasagna slices in the skillet, cover with a lid, and heat for about 5-7 minutes or until warmed through, flipping them halfway through.
• d. Check the internal temperature and adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
• e. Once the lasagna is heated, remove from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before serving.
