Here’s the funny thing: I actually enjoy cooking. Even in my teeny tiny kitchen, I put Buffy on my tablet or play my favorite podcast and get to work. Unfortunately, there are plenty of other work and responsibilities vying for my time. Eating out every night is not in the budget, not to mention the health risks, so how do you balance home cooked meals with everything else on your plate? You make it as easy as possible. With meals like this homemade freezer lasagna I don’t have to choose between productivity and my family.

You can make clean up even easier by preparing this in aluminum lasagna pans from the Dollar Tree. You get 2 pans for a buck. Bargain!

To Freeze

Cover your pan with aluminum foil and stick in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
When you are ready to cook, remove from the freezer the night before and let it defrost in the freezer until an hour before you plan to eat dinner.

To Cook

If you are not freezing before cooking your lasagna, let sit for at least 1 hour before cooking to soften the noodles. Otherwise, they won’t come out tender after baking.
Pre-heat your oven to 400° F. Bake your lasagna covered for 1 hour then remove the foil and heat for another 10-15 minutes until the cheese on top is melted.

My family loves this ooey gooey and cheesy dinner and I love how easy to is to make. After you’ve tried the basic version of this homemade freezer lasagna, customize it to your family’s tastes by adding other ingredients between the sauce and cottage cheese layers. I love mushrooms but if I add them it’s a fight with the kids who prefer Italian sausage. Luckily, you can personalize this so I put sausage on half and mushrooms on the other half. It is also delicious with a side of homemade garlic bread. Yum!
