Keto Lasagna

EASY KETO LASAGNA RECIPE

Traditional lasagna is the the ultimate comfort food. There’s no reason you should be able to eat a cheesy lasagna on the Keto lifestyle.

We’ve had many keto lasagnas over the years. The hardest thing about the Keto diet is replacing the lasagna noodle with something that actually holds its shape in a  low carb lasagna recipe.

LOW-CARB NOODLE REPLACEMENT

  • Zucchini noodles as the lasagna noodle is good but tends to get watery and turn into a big mush.
  • Fathead dough is another alternate in place of noodles but also turns into mush when looked. 
  • I’ve also made Keto lasagna noodles with lupin flour. They started off promising but also turned to big mess when cooked. 
  • The winner! Of all the things we’ve tried, an egg white wrap as the noodle provides a neutral flavored layer that holds its shape. Egglife wraps are the brand we used which is a little thicker than other brands I’ve seen but you can use any wrap.

INGREDIENTS

  • GROUND BEEF AND GROUND SAUSAGE – You can use sweet Italian sausage or a spicy one. The meat sauce is flavorful with two types of meats.
  • GARLIC
  • ONION
  • LOW CARB MARINARA SAUCE – Tomato sauce can be loaded with sugar so make sure you use one that isn’t like Rao’s pasta sauce.
  • MOZZARELLA CHEESE
  • RICOTTA CHEESE – You could also use cottage cheese as a replacement.
  • ​EGG – An egg binds the mixture.
  • PARMESAN CHEESE
  • ITALIAN SEASONINGS
  • EGG WHITE WRAPS – In place of lasagna noodles these work great as lasagna sheets.
