Oven-Ready Lasagne
The wide flat sheets of lasagne pasta originally made by the Romans were called lasagne. Lasagne later came to refer to a dish cooked in a pot using long flat pasta sheets, layered with minced meat, cheese, and tomatoes. Barilla® Oven Ready Lasagne does not require boiling the pasta before baking -- simply add it directly to your pan and bake.
Barilla® Oven Ready Lasagne is made with non-GMO ingredients. For more information, please read our position.
