Not because I'm a great photographer, but purely because I enjoy food and like to remember what I ate and when/where.

In the first of what will hopefully be a continual series of reviews, I take a look at Tesco's Italian Lasagne.

Found in the "convenience food" chiller cabinet of most store, Tesco's Italian Lasagne (Produced in the U.K.) is current part of their 3 for £4 scheme. This, to the man cooking dinner for one, represents excellent value - but how does it stack up?

Living in a one bedroom maisonette with a small kitchen for a decade, I ate a lot of convenience food and have learned to some extent how to sort the good from the bad. This Lasagne is certainly in the top 10% of pre-packed food. It can be cooked from the refrigerator or frozen on day of purchase and eaten within a month.

To cook, one simply removes the cardboard sleeve and film seal lid and puts it into a microwave of pre-heated oven. Instructions are given for cooking from frozen and this will take 35-40mins in an oven or 10mins in a high powered microwave.

There are some vital tips when buying pre-packed lasagne:
