if my family invited me to christmas dinner and gave me lasagna I would be PISSED. But the food is a very large part of christmas in my family so that would never happen

I understand and it was for me growing up, too. Guess this tip works for those of us that aren't cooking for as many people.

I think it’s a great idea. You can make a small pan or a large one for however large your crowd.

That person is abnormal if they would be mad about being served homemade lasagna.

I also used to make a big pan for us and several smaller pans to give to single friends and co-workers. It was easy to throw together when I already had the mess made and they really appreciated it.

I would kill for someone to give me one lol. I am definitely going to add this to my list for next year. Thanks for the inspiration!

You're welcome! It's a good trick for New Years, too. Perfect for a low effort hangover meal if you make it ahead of time.

Good thing you aren’t Italian-American because lasagna (or baked ziti) are big holiday meal traditions. The “food prep” work done day-of is setting out a spread of cold cuts and antipasto and opening the bottles of wine.

Good thing you’re not coming to our celebration. But that just means more yummy lasagna for us!
