Keto-Friendly Lasagna
Well, well, well, look what this girl has done. She has gone and made a Keto-Friendly Lasagna. Yes, she has! AND it was good! I will say the one thing I will do differently is season it more with Italian seasoning and make my marinara sauce. Usually, I do that, but I did not this time.
Ingredients
2 jars sugar-free spaghetti sauce (you can make sure own)
2# ground beef
Seasoning
Italian seasoning
minced garlic
onion
parsley
chopped spinach
Ricotta
Mozzarella
Parmesan
Zucchini Noodles
3 zucchini sliced on a mandolin
Salt
Cheese Noodles
3 c. mozzarella
2 tsp. Italian seasoning
8 oz. cream cheese
4 eggs
Directions for Zucchini Noodles
Once they are sliced, lay them flat on a paper towel. Sprinkle with salt. Doing this allows the water to be drained from the zucchini noodles. If you don’t do this, your lasagna will be too watery. Allow sitting while working on everything else.
Cheese Noodles
Add mozzarella, Italian seasoning, eggs, and cream cheese to the food processor. Mix. It is thick. Line your baking sheet with parchment paper. Glop your mixture and press it down. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. Let it cool. Peel the parchment paperback and then cut it into strips. I cut it in 1/2 long way first.
Sauce
Brown meat, minced garlic, onion, and seasoning. Drain if necessary. Once drained, add spaghetti sauce, Italian seasoning, parsley, and chopped spinach. Taste to check to season.
Layers
Pat the excess water off of the zucchini. Place a small amount of sauce on the bottom of a greased 13×9 pan (I used that and an 8×8 pan). Then layer your cheese noodles. Next to the zucchini noodles. A layer of sauce, ricotta (or cottage), mozzarella, and parmesan. Repeat ending with cheese.
Bake at 350 for about 40-45 minutes. Allow resting for about 10 minutes before cutting into it.
