See how our panel got on with seven different brands, some full fat and some low calorie. Remember, our panel do not know up-front whose brand they are tasting.  Lasagne, Be Good to Yourself, Sainsbury's* Looked good and tasted good! You were obviously eating 'lasagne'. Good portions and loads of layers. Our panel were surprised when shown this dish was a low-fat option. We have seen that some of the low-fat dishes can be watery and lacking in flavour in comparison to full-fat options, which can make you feel 'deprived'. However this dish unanimously held its own with all brands. Per Pack (450g)† Per 100g CALORIES 504kcal 112kcal FAT 17.1g 3.8g Beef Lasagne, Weight Watchers from Heinz* The portion size (300g) for a main meal was deemed poor - definitely not enough for an adult's main meal. However, for flavour and taste all the panel thought it was excellent and not an obvious low-fat dish. Good mixture of textures and tastes. Per Pack (300g)† Per 100g CALORIES 297kcal 99kcal FAT 8.4g 2.8g   Lasagne, Bird's Eye* A spicy taste to this lasagne which was positively received. Good colour. Adequate portions, loads of tomatoes and one of the better dishes tasted. Per Pack (375g)† Per 100g CALORIES 420kcal 112kcal FAT 17.3g 4.6g   Lasagne, Asda* A thick and creamy almost heavy topping. A good colour. In comparison with the other dishes lacking in taste and flavour. Per Serving (378g)† Per 100g CALORIES 427kcal 113kcal FAT 18.9g 5.0g Lasagne, Healthy Eating, Tesco* Poor colour and not a real flavoursome or tasty lasagne. A strong pasta taste above all else. Obvious amounts of vegetables. Per Pack (340g)† Per 100g CALORIES 343kcal 101kcal FAT 10.2g 3.0g Lasagne, Healthy Choice, Asda* A bland appearance. Tasteless and runny and an obvious low-fat dish. The panel agreed it tasted like a bland cheese and tomato pasta dish. Per Pack (348g)† Per 100g CALORIES 383kcal 110kcal FAT 7.0g 2.0g †Retailer's Recommended Portion Size Conclusion We have found in the past that low fat options can be watery and lack flavour and taste. Our panel were pleasantly surprised to discover two which upheld their own — Sainsbury's Be Good to Yourself and Weight Watchers — proving you can have your lasagne without consuming loads of unwanted calories!     Contact Us Free Trial Membership Newsletter Privacy Help Press Office Site Map	2008 Edition   Calorie and nutritional information for over 22,000 foods Email this page Print this page Calories in Ready Meals The Weight Loss Resources' UK food database lists the calories in over 20,000 basic and branded foods and drinks.  Access it free for 3 days
