Well, os doesn't eat lasagne, but it's his loss. He then eats something else (like pancakes, or Yorkshire puddings, or tinned tuna and cottage cheese).
I calculated the cost of making my lasagne: 7,76€. Sounds a bit expensive, but it comes down to 1,55€ per person. or 0,78€/portion - 5 people ate it yesterday, and I got three more portions to freezer for my lunches and two more portions to the fridge for hb's or children's lunches.
Euros:
| edam | 0,99 | ||
| cream cheese | 0,5535 | ||
| mince | 3,15 | ||
| pasta sheets | 0,725 | ||
| full milk | 0,763 | ||
| flour | 0,018 | ||
| butter | 0,49 | ||
| tomato passata | 0,63 | ||
| salt | 0,01 | ||
| smoked paprika | 0,01 | ||
| pepper | 0,01 | ||
| nutmeg | 0,01 | ||
| garlic | 0,1 | ||
| herbs | 0,1 | ||
| leftover ketchup | 0,2 | ||
Free: carrots and courgette (about 300g each)
I could have used less cheese, but I really do like cheesy lasagne. Mince was the cheapest without YS. I could have used regular milk (70cents) or used just water (or half water), but that's really all I could have done to make it cheaper.
Cheapest lasagne from shop is about 1€/portion, but because I can't eat it (onions) it's something we don't buy.
So once again it is not "homemade is cheaper" but "homemade is only option". I have never been able to eat lasagne at restaurant. Once I have eaten almost authentic Italian lasagne - almost authentic because there were no onions or garlic - it was specially made for me and my brother! And yes, when I make my lasagne, it is as good as that was.
But now I'm starving!
