You also lose the nice textural difference between the layers of noodles, cheese, and sauce.
Or something a little like an explosion.
Turn on the Oven
Avoid future lasagna disappointment by reheating it in the oven instead.
Preheat the oven to 350 F and cover the lasagna (in an oven-safe dish) with aluminum foil.
If it’s too late to thaw, don’t worry.
Frozen lasagna can also be reheateddirectly from the freezer.
Place the slices or remaining leftovers in an oven-safe dish, cover, and bake as directed above.
Just know this will add to your cooking time, so plan accordingly.

Use foil to cover the lasagna so it helps seal in the moisture while it reheats.
Remove the foil for the final few cooking moments to allow the cheese to bubble and brown.
This time helps the lasagna slice better for better serving sizes.
Thicker lasagna slices require more rest before slicing.
