The best way to reheat lasagna is to use a microwave oven. You should heat for about 2 minutes at max power per serving, covered in plastic film to avoid it from getting dry. If you reheat it in a traditional oven, do it at a low temperature (140ºC), covered in aluminum foil for about 20 to 25 minutes.
