Cook
Bake in a preheated 350°F Oven for 1 hour. I like to tent the lasagna with tin foil for the first 40 mins and then remove at the end so that the cheese doesn't burn.Tenting just means folding the tinfoil down the center and setting it on top of the lasagna. Tenting it prevents the cheese from sticking to the foil.
