What do you serve with lasagne?

27 replies

PosiePootlePerkins · 26/12/2016 12:18

Got family coming for lunch tomorrow, there will be 12 of us, all ages. Was planning to make two huge lasagnes today so I can just heat them up tomorrow. Other than garlic bread and salad leaves, what else should I serve?

Sounds enough to me

fluffiphlox · 26/12/2016 12:21

More salad stuff not just leaves. I always think garlic bread is a bit much with lasagne but I know others enjoy it.

GetTheeBehindMeSanta · 26/12/2016 12:21

That sounds fine. As long as everyone likes lasagne, you don't need much with it. I might do a full salad rather than just leaves, but would be happy with what you're serving.

Chips!

Nanasueathome · 26/12/2016 12:22

Jacket potato

Salad
Green beans in garlic - cook green beans till al dente, drain and cool. Mix one part vinegar to three parts oil and add a couple of chopped garlic cloves. Pour over beans and mix through.

Noooo to chips or jacket potato!! That is a stodgy travesty and a carb overload.

I would serve lots of lovely salad.

Flumplet · 26/12/2016 12:24

Chips, salad and garlic bread 😍

TrustySnail · 26/12/2016 12:24

Nothing - I see it as one of those things that's a meal in itself.

PickAChew · 26/12/2016 12:25

I usually serve.a.big.pile of greens of some sort.

And usually hit the space bar.

GetTheeBehindMeSanta · 26/12/2016 12:26

Definitely not potato. It would be like having spaghetti bolognese and chips!

Philoslothy · 26/12/2016 12:26

Salad and garlic bread. It is meat and pasta so needs nothing else. You wouldn't serve potato with spaghetti bolognese

PosiePootlePerkins · 26/12/2016 12:26

Thanks for all the replies!

PUG like the sound of those beans

Audreyhelp · 26/12/2016 12:35

Peas

PosiePootlePerkins · 26/12/2016 12:36

Ooh, peas. Now that's thrown me. Just peas?

OP posts:

Moomin37 · 26/12/2016 12:37

Always have peas with lasagne - yum!

AndNowItsSeven · 26/12/2016 12:38

Chips salad and garlic dough balls.

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 26/12/2016 12:39

Nothing. Just lasagne.

Audreyhelp · 26/12/2016 12:44

I love peas with lasagne and think how easy they will to do with all those people there.

Ineedmorelemonpledge · 26/12/2016 12:45

Steamed green beans or broccoli?

Green bean salad?

WeAllHaveWings · 26/12/2016 12:45

Carrot sticks! A nice change in texture to lasagne.

busyrascal · 26/12/2016 12:52

I came on here to say garlic bread and salad. Nothing else needed imo.
