Lasagne is delicious, but takes time to make. I cook my filling and noodles the day before and assemble and cook the lasagne the day I serve it. Here is how I store the noodles:

I just use the noodles you dont have to cook works great
I have tried the no-boil noodles and my family noticed the difference. I have used the regular uncooked noodles to make crockpot lasagne and that was a success.
Same here.... I've tried the no-boil noodles, and they were noticably different.. I didn't like them... and won't be using them again..
Cooking is not the problem. After draining they are hot to handle and begin sticking to each other as they cool. Do you lay them out baking sheets until ready to assemble, or spray w PAM? Thats the hint Im looking for
Takes a while to cook those noodles. Dont have the time on that day of making the whole dish
We'll, I'm making what amounts to be about 20 lbs of lasagna so anything I can do ahead of time helps.
Thanks for sharing your tip. I'm sure a lot of people use precooked noodles for lasagne. Personally, I don't precook my noodles. When I was a young adult, my cookbook had a recipe for lasagna using uncooked noodles. It works great and I have never tried anything different. I think it works because I heat the sauce instead of using it cold, to start softening the noodles.
I just layer the warm sauce, noodles and cheeses until I get to the top, finishing with a layer of sauce. The covered noodles cook during baking and everything turns out great. I have done this in my crockpot as well.
Great tip! Waxed paper can be expensive (I dont eat cereal). But I buy plastic wrap in bulk. Do you think plastic wrap would work? Thanks again. Ready to bake are more expensive and putting regular noodle in uncooked has never tasted the same for me.
