How to Freeze Lasagna

Lasagna may come from Italy, but Americans have a love affair with the layers of noodles, cheese and sauce. Whether you have gone out for lasagna and have a doggie bag or you have made a large batch for future use, freezing your lasagna can extend the life of your lasagna. However, if you don't take heed when freezing your lasagna, you may experience lasagna with freezer burn. This article will provide you with some simple steps on freezing lasagna.

Things You'll Need

• Lasagna
• Plastic wrap
• Tin foil
• Sealable freezer bag

Instructions

1. Set freezer to zero degrees.

2. Make sure the lasagna is completely cooled.

3. Cover the lasagna that is in a glass or metal dish with plastic wrap. Press the plastic down on top of the lasagna.

4. Cover the lasagna pan with foil. Tightly seal it on top of the plastic wrap. The plastic wrap will seal any moisture or freezer burn out of the lasagna.
