This looks so good! I love cooking pasta in the microwave. I have never tried lasagna before. These TupperWave products sound so cool!
I actually just ordered the cassarole Tupperwave one so I will let you know how well it works.
Surprisingly, spinach lasagna is my twin boys' favorite. They are really into veggies when it is in their favorite dish lasagna. Sometimes they would even volunteer to help out in the kitchen when they knew that we're having lasagna for dinner.
Just to update...I didn't make the spinach one yet, but I made a regular batch with no bake noodles in the TupperWave casserole dish and it came out great. Went to fast and couldn't take pictures, but will next time. :)
It says on half power until noodles are tender. How long do you recommend as it doesn't say at all?
I would say at half power always. When you are cooking in the microwave always do half power unless the recipe calls for it.
