Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Lasagna expire?
Unopened store-bought lasagna can last up to a week past the printed sell-by date. Once opened, it should be enjoyed within 3 to 5 days. Homemade lasagna can be safely stored in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days. An excellent option to extend its life is freezing - it can last for up to 2 to 3 months when frozen.
How do you tell if Lasagna is bad?
To tell if lasagna has gone bad, check for the common signs of spoilage. These can include a discolored appearance, a foul or sour smell, or visible mold. If the lasagna appears slimy or if it’s developed a glossy sheen, it’s best discarded. When in doubt, it's always safer to side with caution and dispose of any food that you suspect may have spoiled.
Tips for storing Lasagna to extend shelf life
• Always store lasagna in a tightly sealed container to block out air and other contaminants. • If you’re planning to freeze lasagna, let it cool to room temperature first, but don’t leave it out for more than two hours to maintain its safety. • Use freezer-safe containers or heavy-duty freezer bags. You can partition the lasagna into individual servings before freezing to make it convenient for thawing and reheating. • To defrost safely, it's best to thaw frozen lasagna in the refrigerator for 24 hours. If reheating is needed, ensure the lasagna reaches 165°F (74°C) which is the safe temperature for eating.
