My family loves lasagna.
I do not love to make it. Do you
see the problem?
When I first got interested in Meals in a Jar, I made a list
of meals I would love to have sitting in my pantry ready to go at a moment’s
notice. Lasagna was at the top of the
list.
After some experimenting I settled on this soup. There are currently 12 quart sized mason jars
filled with this soup in my pantry. We
like it that much.
This soup has all the flavors of lasagna, pasta, tomato
sauce, and sausage. I don’t put the
cheese in the jar but I use it as a garnish (if you can call ½ a cup of cheese
a garnish).

A note on Food Safety:
The Meal-in-a-Jar method is a form of Dry Pack Canning. The food inside the jars is preserved because the food is free of moisture and oxygen, the lack of which inhibits bacterial growth. Jars should be stored in a dark environment to prevent any nutritional degradation due to light.
When packing your jars remember to always - Sanitize all equipment before use. Be sure to dry all equipment thoroughly before using.
- Wash hands and or wear food handler’s gloves.
- Keep work area clean and dry.
- Use either method 1 or method 2 to remove the oxygen from your jar.
