2. Mix the egg white powder into the shredded cheese. Add egg yolks, cream, shredded cheese & bloomed gelatin to the blender. Blend until combined.

3. Divide mixture onto 2 sheet pans lined with silicone baking mats. Spread evenly to about the size of your lasagna pan.

4. Bake at 350F for 20 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, then trim to fit your lasagna pan & set aside.

LASAGNA INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 lbs Ground Beef
  • 1 Medium Onion, diced
  • 4 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 16oz Whole Milk Ricotta Cheese
  • 16oz Whole Milk Mozzarella Cheese, grated

**Shredded Italian Cheese to taste if you like a cheesy lasagna.

  • 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan, divided
  • 1 14.5oz can Diced Tomatoes, drained
  • 2 25oz jars Marinara Sauce, no sugar added
  • 2 tsp Italian Seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp Red Chile Flakes
  • 1 Large Egg
  • Redmond Real Salt
  • Freshly Ground Pepper

LASAGNA DIRECTIONS:


1. Heat about a tablespoon of fat to a sauté pan and add the onion. Cook until softened. Add the garlic and cook just until fragrant.

2. Add your ground beef, 2 tsp Italian seasoning, 1/2 tsp chile flakes, Real Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.

3. Once the ground beef has browned, add the 2 jars of marinara sauce. Cook 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

4. While the sauce cooks, add your ricotta cheese, egg, 1/4 cup grated parmesan to a bowl. Mix to combine and add some freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.

LASAGNA ASSEMBLY:


1. Grease an 8 1/2 x11″ baking dish. Spread 1 1/2 cups of the meat sauce on the bottom.

2. Place a trimmed pasta sheet on top. Spread 1/2 of the ricotta mixture over the pasta sheet. Top with half of the well drained, diced tomatoes.

3. Sprinkle with some of the grated mozzarella. Add half the remaining meat sauce and sprinkle with the Italian cheese blend and parmesan.

4. Add the pasta sheets, gently pressing down. Spread the remaining ricotta. Top with the remaining drained, diced tomatoes.

5. Sprinkle with mozzarella and top with the remaining meat sauce, then the rest of the mozzarella, some Italian cheese blend and parmesan.

6. Grease a sheet of foil and wrap tightly. Bake at 375F for 30 minutes. Remove the foil, bake an additional 30 minutes uncovered.

7. Allow the lasagna to cool 15 minutes before cutting.
*The amount of cheese in this recipe is up to you. I like it cheesy so I use a lot. Feel free to add less or more to your tastes.

Easy Cheesy Low Carb Keto Lasagna Recipe

Low Carb Cheesy Lasagna!

Lasagna was always a favorite growing up. The drawback: trigger ingredients and all the carbs. 

What I love about this recipe is its super simple & you can exclude any ingredient that causes you any G.I. distress. 

Italian dishes are notorious for including high fodmap trigger ingredients like onion, garlic, marinara, and dairy. So pick and choose your battles and what ingredients you want to include in your creation!
