"Could this be prepared ahead up to the point of putting it in the oven, the 'slump' could maybe be prepared, wrapped in clingfilm and left in the fridge till ready to use. "

"I would like to make this in advance and then reheat for Sat night. Has anyone else made this in advance and reheated? Im just worried that because of the beans the sauce may go quite thick after it has been allowed to go cold and then reheated, (i guess i could always add a bit of stock or white wine, should this happen.) And also is it better on the hob to reheat or in the oven??"

"Wow this is lovely. I nice change to the usual lasagne i make with beef. I did find it hard to find a dish the right size, they were either too big or way too small. I got around this by using spinach (well Chard beet actually, but just as nice) i layered it up with the rest of ingredients, this not only bulked it out but gave it lovely flavour and extra veg. We loved it, the first night i served it simply with Ciabatta stuffed with Mozzarella and garlic, the following day i swerved it with a sliced green pepper, broccoli and cauliflower cheese, Beetroot (sliced) and homegrown carrots (also sliced). All the veg we used is homegrown, lovely. i will definitely be making this a again."
