Helpful hints
- Â Lasagna is a great food to make and freeze for a later date. Consider doubling the recipe to make two batches at a time.
- To cook pre-made lasagna, preheat oven to 375° F and bake for 45 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
- Increase the amount of tomato, kale and zucchini if you do not need a low potassium diet.
- Adjust herbs to taste.
