Author’s Note: As always, this is not a paid or sponsored review. I have no affiliation with Costco<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Greasy like a delicious oil spill.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I should have tried this sooner. This is one of the Costco Deli products that folks rave about, but just doesn’t sound<\/em> good. Ravioli Lasagna? Really?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But friends, it’s good<\/em>. Really.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What does it taste like?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is super flavorful lasagna. The cheese is a sophisticated combination of mozzarella, provolone, ricotta, parmesan, fontina, pecorino romano cheese. There’s more density than I expected in the ravioli layers; the noodles are compressed together without a fluffy cheese layer separating them. The cheese is inside! Compartmentalized. It’s different. But yumcious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Mozzarella<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I can slightly taste the “chianti and chablis” wine-based sauce. There’s a savory-rich flavor that doesn’t reek<\/em> of anything in specific — it’s not “garlicy” or “oniony.” Just delicious. And complex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The meat is on the bottom. It’s a spiced combination of beef and pork. While there are thinly sliced, bite-sized pieces, the texture is reminiscent of tender meatball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Here’s my review of Aldi’s frozen Bremer Party Size Lasagna<\/a>, if you’d like to compare.)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

There is a “tonne” of oil that collects in the bottom of the pan. A lagoon of oil. Definitely greasier than I want. The upside of microwaved leftovers is that the oil seems to have already soaked into the pasta, and doesn’t pool egregiously. The downside? Well, I guess I’m eating<\/em> all that oil instead of leaving it behind in the pan!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, I incinerated my lasagna. Behold:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And I take full responsibility for this mistake. I did not read the cooking instructions thoroughly — the pan is supposed to be wrapped in aluminum foil before baking. I did not mean to turn it into a cheesy version of Anakin Skywalker. Alas.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"An<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I cooked the tray nekked, with the cheese flapping in the oven breeze. Perhaps this is why mine has very little sauce? I ended up using a jar of Bertolli sauce from my pantry to add a much-needed sauciness to my servings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Well, I may have gone a bit overboard. But, sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do I like this better than Costco’s Frozen Italian Sausage Lasagna<\/a>? YES. Yes, I do. This one has better textures and flavors. But less sauce. Just add your own sauce, and you’ll be unstoppable.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
