Tesco has announced the launch of a limited edition lasagne sandwich.
The 'Lasandwich' boasts two slices of white bread filled with diced beef, a tomato and herb sauce and cooked pasta sheets together with a dressing made from cheddar, ricotta and mayonnaise.
Its creator, food developer Laura Fagan, said: "The inspiration comes from my own student days and how certain foods could sometimes taste much better the next day - such as pizza, lasagne and even curry.
"Lasagne sandwiches were a favourite of mine back in student days and were really popular with all my mates at university."
The sandwiches have been criticised by some on health grounds as they contain 26.9g of fat and are 565 calories.
However, a Tesco spokesperson told the Daily Mail: "The lasagne sandwich is something which we hope people will see as an occasional treat in the same way that people will sometimes treat themselves to a burger or a curry."
