Beef Lasagne

What is it?

Layered pasta sheets, beef bolognese, bechamel sauce and a cheese topping come stacked in a single-serve frozen tray. It's built for oven heating, so the pasta softens as the sauces warm through and the top takes on some colour. Compared with other Coles frozen meals, it sits in the more complete-dinner end of the range. You get the usual lasagne mix of meat sauce, white sauce and cheese, all stacked in clear layers rather than stirred together. Bolognese carries a tomato-and-beef base, bechamel adds creaminess between the pasta sheets, and the cheese topping crisps up around the edges in the oven. It's a straightforward frozen lasagne at a supermarket-own-brand price point.
