Stouffer’sOpens in a new tab calls its LasagnaMac “a first-of-its-kind” mashup. It combines a classic lasagna, featuring layers of meat, tomato sauce, and noodles, with a middle portion consisting of cheddar mac and cheese. The product is part of the company’s Happyfull campaign. Considering we would be both happy and full if we ate either normal lasagna or traditional macaroni and cheese, this combination makes a whole lot of sense.
It also makes sense because thinking about LasagnaMac has made us realize something that seems so obvious now: lasagna is just another form of macaroni and cheese. Seriously, what are the basic ingredients of lasagna? Noodles (macaroni) and ricotta (cheese). Yeah. We can’t believe we never noticed before either.
