To prepare, remove the outer packaging and film lid. Place the lasagne on a baking tray in the center of a preheated oven. Bake for the time specified on the packaging, typically around 30-40 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the sauce is bubbling. Allow it to stand for a few minutes before serving. It is best enjoyed hot, perhaps with a side salad.
