Accidentally made a massive lasagne and feel panicky

[BeardofHagrid]

As title, really.

I made a vegetable lasagne this afternoon and it’s turned out much bigger than intended, with an estimated weight of around two stone.

Albeit very nice, it is rather rich for my taste, using cream cheese in lieu of béchamel, not to mention the secret layer of fresh basil leaves. It’s only me to eat it and I don’t think I can face it for some time after one more serving tomorrow. Freezer is full. Neighbours all vegan.

The huge lasagne is cooling off in my now extinguished oven while tough decisions are made. Feeling a bit hot and panicky about it.

What do?

All I can think of is the secret layer of basil. But if you made it and you're the only one eating it, how can it be secret? You know it's there.

This is really bothering me 🤣

Nobody accidentally makes 12 kilos of food.

One would not have thought that needed signposting.

Indeed.

I remember when it was all green fields around here and a thread about accidently making a 2-stone lasagne (clue: it doesn't actually weigh 2 stone, people) wouldn't have filled up with inane incredulous responses from people who've taken the OP so fucking literally.

It's actually slightly depressing.

Smear it on your face to see if it makes a good face mask?

Or Hebden Bridge.

Cut it in half, and to one half, add some nice chocolate ganache to the top, stick in some candles and there U have it- a birthday cake

Or- cut it in half, wrap it in enough gladwrap to be secure, and use as 2 6kg weights for Pilates

Take out a couple of meals for next few days from the freezer and use the space to put it away.

Absolutely. And that was my point.

Which I guess was lost in translation. Apologies.

god, I wish I had a 2 stone lasagne to worry about. I love lasagne

Im sorry, but this actually made me laugh! Thanks for brightening my day 😁

There must be some things that can come out the freezer for lunches/dinners over the next couple of days to free up some space. Or is there anything from the freezer you could give to friend or family as a nice gesture? Do you work in an office? Could you take it in for a team lunch or something?

@Evenstar

thst was my assumption too!

2 stone?? what you made it in a wheelie bin

Ffs get a life and stop panicking about a lasagne
