How do you cook frozen lasagna ? I need step by step for the infrawave oven. Thanks

I don't know if this answers your question, but I found this Quick Start Guide on the Infrawave Oven:

http://www.infrawaveoven.com/support/FC100-Quick-Start-Guide.pdf

If your frozen lasagna comes in a paper or plastic container that can be used in a normal oven, you have to remove that container and put the frozen lasagna in a separate Infrawave Oven compatible container.

If you look on page 2 of the PDF file, you'll find instructions for "bake and roast" which includes lasagna in its list. I'd probably follow those directions for cooking frozen lasagna.

Hope this helps!

I just got one of these ovens. The ads say you can cook from frozen, but then don't you have to add cooking time?  And if so, how much time?  I couldn't find anything in the directions that said anything about starting from frozen versus starting from thawed versus starting from room temperature!  (Except for the "Quick Foods" section which only listed small items like nuggets, wings, and fries)  Does the machine somehow detect the initial temperature and adjust accordingly?

One other question - can you cook different foods at the same time?  (eg. Chicken with vegetables plate)

Okay, I think if you scroll down the PDF file and look under the "Convert Menu" options, then you can enter in the recipe or pre-packaged food's cooking directions and then the Infrawave Oven cooking time will appear after you enter in those instructions. As you can see, you can enter in desired temperature and time.

As for cooking different foods, it really depends. If you want to cook meats together, it probably will work. But if you cook vegetables and chicken at the same time, since it takes longer to cook the meat, then you will probably get overcooked vegetables. I would personally cook different foods together that have the same or close to same cooking time.
