the internal Temperature of Lasagna should reach at least 160 degrees Fahrenheit. That's all I know from my teacher.

Most people make lasagna out of pre cooked ingredients except for the pasta, which is usually partially cooked. When the pasta is done and the cheese is the right consistency and looks right, it's done.
On a meat thermometer, that would probably be 150-160, but watch that it doesn't burn. To kill bacteria, the standard is 165.

I usually brown a 50/50 mix of lean ground beef and italian sausage in a skillet and then add it to 2 jars of store bought red sauce, whatever brand you prefer. I "doctor" the sauce by adding fresh minced garlic, oregano, onions, mushrooms and other spices as well as a few cans of tomato sauce and a dash of italian salad dressing (sounds odd, but it adds a nice "kick" to the flavor and cuts the sweet canned sauce taste). Grate sharp cheddar cheese, mozzarella and any other kind you like. Spoon enough of the sauce in the bottom of a pyrex pan to cover it and place a layer of uncooked lasagne noodles on top. More sauce and cheese on that and then layer the noodles, sauce, cheese until the pan is full. Finish with the cheese layer and pour one can of tomato sauce on top if it seems dry or not enough sauce to cover the noodles. Cover with foil and seal the edges tightly. Bake on the middle rack in your oven at 350 til the noodles are done, I think about 2 hours or so. You can add whatever else you like as far as eggs, cottage cheese, etc. but my kids and my brother like it without those things. I always get rave reviews from guests, so it must not be terrible. lol. Good luck! Enjoy your dinner party!

You want to see is bubbling, this will happen around 180-200 degrees.
I cook at 350 to keep the past from burning on the bottom and side of the pan.
Also, I keep it covered with foil and the cheese flows a little better as it cooks

Let me get this straight.. the MEAT in the sauce is COOKED... right.? Pasta can be eaten raw... right? Lasagna is done when the CHEESES have all melted and that takes about an hour in a 350 deg. F. oven
The other answers are right... if you cook anything to 165 deg F. then IT'S COOKED

Normally i would just say fruit, but i think both. I enjoy the sugariness of the fruits but i love the essence and kick the vegetables bring

In UK minimum temp for cooking food commercially is 82c/179f although anything above 63c/145f will ensure food is cooked and safe

Everything is already cooked, all you are doing is raising the temperature to melt the cheese. Don't worry about the internal temp., it doesn't play into lasagne. Just bake it for 30 min. at 350.
