Australian supermarket lasagne taste test: the winner comes in at $2.49

Composite of supermarket lasagna products.
Each supermarket lasagne was rated on its flavour, appearance and – importantly – post-microwave structural integrity. Composite: Woolworths/Coles/McCain/Aldi/Latina/Tutto Pasta

Ready-to-eat lasagne are a staple of my diet, especially when the weather gets colder. There’s nothing like an oozy hunk of meat, cheese and carbs to make you feel as if you’ve just tucked yourself into a pasta doona. Eating lasagne under a blanket manifests a beautiful sense of symmetry: I’m at one with the universe in all its multi-layered glory.

Plus, it’s affordable: you can have a full meal for under $3 – though it’s a staggering testament to the speed of inflation that this is a 20% price increase since I last wrote about cheap lasagne.
