    I've made lasagna on my egg, very expensive meal. I paid close to $35 dollars for all the ingredients. Oh get me wrong, it came out incredible .. but you can buy a lot of premade lasagna for that kind of money.

    Glass should be fine as long as it's not in the direct path of the heat source, i.e. us an indirect setup.  I use a cheap ceramic dish all the time.  With an indirect setup, the egg is basically an oven.

    treat it like an oven.  the glass dish has no idea whether it is in a 350 oven or a 350 egg.

    setup indirect of course.

    i use a glass dish.

    You can egg it indirect just like oven.  Can't beat homemade lasagna!!!!  Your husband will love it.

    I only did store bought frozen lasagna one year.  He really dropped the ball with my birthday in February, Mother's Day, and our anniversary in June.  So I made him his birthday lasagna, but it was a frozen one from Sam's.  He did much better the next year.

    Agree with @Darby_Crenshaw but would like to add that I usually will run about 50° hotter than recipe calls for when I'm baking in the egg.

    Cook in glass all the time- works fine. 

    If you really want to get the smokey flavor cold smoke the cheese you use to assemble. 

    It really adds a lot of flavor
