Stouffer's is introducing Classic Lasagna Bites as an easy way for people to enjoy the full flavors and texture lasagna without the labor-intensive process of making the pasta dish from scratch or waiting for a full pan of lasagna to cook. The breaded bite-sized lasagna pieces are compact yet full of cheese, meat sauce and Italian herbs. A single box shares 18 bites, which has the potential to make a casual meal for a group or a quick snack. These bites can be prepared in the microwave, helping to rapidly cut down the time between making and eating lasagna.
Unlike a full dish of lasagna that may be difficult to make space for in the freezer, these ones take up minimal space.
