Last night Michael Angelo’s Family Size Lasagna saved dinner in our house. I was on the go all day running errands and I didn’t have time to cook. So I popped in Michael Angelo’s in the oven for 45 minutes and continued on with my errands (my husband was home to make sure the house didn’t burn down). I was quite impressed with flavor and texture of the lasagna. Most importantly, it’s so easy to make for days like yesterday when I barley had a moment to myself. All you have to do is take it out of the freezer, lift one corner of the box to ventilate, place on a cookie sheet and place it in the oven at 400 degrees for 30 minutes and then take off the cover completely and cook for an additional 10 minutes or until it’s bubbly and the cheese is brown. (also see box for the exact temperature it needs to reach). I had to cook mine for an extra 10 minutes beyond what it requested. Ovens do vary!
I liked it so much that I had some leftovers for lunch and we’re having it gain for dinner tonight. I’m not going to be wasting any of it. Michael Angelo’s started off with a mom cooking in her kitchen. Michael Angelo’s does not add preservatives, artificial additives or flavors to any of their meals.
Do you like watching Unwrapped? When my husband and I had cable we were hooked on almost all of the night time Food Network shows and Unwrapped was one of our favorites. We both have fond memories of Marc Summers and we love to find out the history behind brands. I’m going to show you all a segment from Unwrapped’s episode about about “Comfy Cozy” favorites where among the many tasty options was the traditional Meat Lasagna from Michael Angelo’s Gourmet Foods
In the segment, founder and CEO Michael Angelo Renna and his mom Sara show viewers how they make their delicious Meat Lasagna, featuring high-quality, premium ingredients like the fresh 100% premium beef, real Italian-style cheeses, ripe hand-selected tomatoes, aromatic heirloom garlic, earthy herbs and spices and fresh semolina pasta. All of these ingredients come together to create a comforting and wholesome lasagna in the same fashion as homemade. And I can vouch for the quality, having eaten two servings already!!

I love the unwrapped shows! I learned a ton of course… but the amount of spices were shocking! That’s a WHOLE LOT of spice. I’m amazed that they make their own pasta.

I loved it – I watch Unwrapped! on a regular basis and I enjoy learning the history behind the foods we eat. No wonder my son loves Michael Angelo’s – they use the same spices I do!
Thank you for this. Let me also recommend Michael Angelo’s dinners to ancient retired couples who just don’t have the energy to cook those wonderful, involved dishes anymore. You won’t notice any difference!
I love Unwrapped, so it was interesting to learn about how Michael Angelo’s creates their lasagna, and the amount and types of spices they use.

I always watch “Unwrapped” on the weekends. I was a bit surprised to see that the pasta is homemade. My local BJ’s sells Michael Angelo’s and I have tried them before. Very close to homemade. Thank you for the chance to win!

Wowie! Thanks for all the work that goes into your lasagna-making operation. It shows in the finished products, and it’s worth it!
The video is well made and really makes the food look good! I want that kitchen too!

Unwrapped with Michael Angelo makes their product seem like something you would make at home for your family.
I’ll admit, I’ve never tried to make a lasagna, I’ve always bought a family sized dinner to treat my family and this one looks like it would definately be a hit. It’s nice to see all the ingredients in unwrapped!
