To prepare, remove the plastic film from the top of the container. Place the lasagna on a baking sheet to catch any potential drips. Bake in a preheated oven according to the package directions, typically until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is melted and golden brown. Allow it to rest for a few minutes after baking before serving. This helps the layers set and makes it easier to portion.
