There’s gusto in the pesto! The aroma of garlic permeates the room as the microwave does its thing. St. Patrick’s Day doesn’t get any greener than this.
There’s only a sprinkle of cheese on the top. If you’re expecting a restaurant lasagna where the mozzarella is overflowing the plate, you’ll be disappointed. The lasagna noodles are a little soft. To make up for these problems there’s a nice thick layer of pesto on and between the layers. Mixed between layers are a few identifiable pieces of mushrooms. One final problem with the product, the plastic film sealing the container is hard to remove.
A strange thing about the packaging is the absence of the word “vegetarian.” Sweet Earth specializes in plant-based products. There’s nothing listed in the ingredients that would make one think this is not vegetarian. All the cheeses used in the product list “vegetarian enzymes” as part of the cheese. The cheeses are made from milk. So take a look for yourself, but for now I’m listing this as vegetarian.
Aside from the above issues, overall this is a tasty take on a traditional lasagna. It may not be traditional, but the generous amount of basil and just enough garlic make this product worth a try. Even a non-vegetarian could like this. The cat cleaned up the bowl.
