To prepare, remove the outer packaging and any film. Place the lasagne in a preheated oven according to the package instructions. The baking time and temperature are designed to heat the dish thoroughly and achieve a bubbly sauce with a golden, melted cheese topping. You can check for doneness by ensuring the sauce is bubbling around the edges and the cheese is fully melted and slightly browned. Allow it to rest for a few minutes after baking before serving.
