What You Should Know

Stouffer's Single Serve Lasagna with Meat & Sauce is a classic frozen-entree discovery in the supermarket's frozen meals aisle, stacked with other ready-to-heat entrees, TV dinners and family-size frozen lasagnas. You’ll usually find it near other comfort-food frozen items, microwavable dinners, frozen vegetables and quick-heat sides. This 10.5 oz single-serve portion is built for quick weeknight dinners, dorm-room meals, or any shopping trip where convenience and familiarity matter. The product fits occasions like last-minute dinners, an easy solo meal after work, or a no-fuss option to keep in the freezer for storm prep. Brand-wise, Stouffer's sits as a mid-market legacy comfort brand: nostalgic, mainstream American, and aimed at busy parents, single adults and anyone seeking an easy, homestyle meal without cooking. Packaging and label cues emphasize familiar, reassuring claims — “100% beef,” “real mozzarella,” and appetizing photography — but it lacks organic or natural certifications and does not present as a health-first product. The label leans on comfort credibility rather than artisanal or kid-targeted branding. In plain terms it’s a highly processed frozen meal made for speed: formulations include modified starches, prepared cheeses and flavor ingredients to preserve texture and shelf life. Sensory details: the lasagna layers a soft, slightly chewy pasta with a warm tomato-meat sauce, pockets of melted mozzarella and a slightly granular cottage/parmesan note; salt-forward and saucy, with a dense, homestyle mouthfeel. Packaging is a microwavable tray sealed with film; the ritual is microwave or oven heating, brief resting, then serving straight from the tray or on a plate alongside a salad or bread.

Common Questions about Stouffers Lasagna with Meat & Sauce

Well, it really depends on what 'healthy' means for you! Stouffer's lasagna offers a decent protein punch with 21 grams per serving, which is great for a quick meal. However, it does have a fair amount of sodium at 900 mg, so if you're keeping an eye on that, you might want to balance it with something lighter throughout the day.
