Re: Make ahead lasagna

| Hello, all,
I am having some friends over on Wednesday night for dinner. I plan on serving lasagna, and I have heard that this is a great make ahead meal because it re-heats very well. I would like to make it on Tuesday evening and then cook it on Wednesday. Do I cook it on Tuesday and just re-heat on Wednesday? Or should I make it on Tuesday and refrigerate, and then cook it on Wednesday?
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Tim |

| I would make it Tuesday, refrigerate it, and bake it Wednesday. Do it a bit ahead; I find things like that improve and are easier to serve if they sit a bit. But if for some reason it's easier for you to bake it Tuesday, too, and reheat it Wednesday, that will also work fine. Have fun! |

| When you bake lasagna it should sit for at least 30-45 minutes after it comes out of the oven so it does not fall apart when you cut and serve it. |

| Also, never cover lasagna with aluminum foil. It will dissolve and leave little flecks on your lasagna. Ask me how I know... |
