And today's (late) lunch will be beef lasagna

Rose, my god your taste buds are ruined !

You haven’t tried pink moscato then, it’s the best rose I’ve tried and is actually palatable.

I can’t drink red as it gives me a banging migraine that paracetamol and ibruprofen doesn’t work touch, I can handle the pain just not the throbbing pressure I get; it’s like getting my head squashed repeatedly for 24hrs straight.

Tonight was pasta for us, onepot 10 minute spaghetti with purple sprouting.
Washed down with a bottle of sainsburys 'what ever is on offer this week' white, definitely none left to slosh into tomorrow nights dinner.

Yes, it is like recipes which use “left over wine”.

Who has left over wine? I don’t understand the concept.

In a similar vein, I discovered that beer has "best before" dates stamped onto it. I mean, what the hell? I'm doing well if I haven't drunk it on the way home.

also there is something wrong if the original bottle of white isn't empty by the time it takes a lasagne to cook. Keith Floyd is my inspiration when it comes to those matters..

I too subscribe to the Keith Floyd method.

TBF, lasagne takes all day, or at least an afternoon if you're doing it right, although I've taken to doing the ragu in the pressure cooker which speeds things along a bit. You need to open the wine to put in the sauce anyway...

Tesco lasagne just takes 30 mins and requires no cleaning up if you eat it out of the container.

Where is your pride ??
TBH......apart from the list of ingredients Tesco lasagna is not bad.
Re the cleaning up I only have 2 items.....4 if you include a small bowl* and a plastic jug** which went into the dish washer.
1. Frying pan. Cook the garlic, onions and mushrooms plus spices. Empty into bowl*.
Brown the mince WHICH IS 3% FAT (you dont get that in Tesco lasagna). Add everything inc' can of tomatoes etc.
**make the cheese sauce in the bowl.
2. Glass dish into which goes layers of pasta/mince/cheese sauce etc.
Into oven for 45 minutes and hey presto a super duper lasagna .
BTW there is enough left over to freeze for 4 more meals.
