Low Carb Beef Lasagna
I know, I know it's been a while since I have been on here. I honestly have not been making any new recipes lately and just repeating old ones. A few people have been bugging me to post more so I tweaked my Low Carb Beef Lasagna recipe tonight.
Ingredients:
Ingredients:
- 1 large onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1-2 cups mushrooms
- 2 zucchinis
- 1 pound ground beef (I always use 97%)
- 14 oz can of pizza sauce (I used a Ragu version)
- 1 TBS dried parsley
- 1 TBS Italian seasoning blend
- 15 oz ricotta cheese
- 4 cups mozzarella cheese, divided
- 1/4 cup Romano cheese
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
- Freshly ground salt & pepper to taste
Directions:
- Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Heat a frying pan on high and use olive oil cooking spray.
- Chop and cook the onion in the frying pan.
- Add the garlic to the frying pan and stir well, you do not want this to burn, it does burn easily.
- Remove onion and garlic from the pan.
- Chop and add the mushrooms, once golden brown remove from the pan.
- Using a vegetable peeler, peel the outside of the zucchini's and discard.
- Continue to use the vegetable peeler and slice the zucchini into strips.
- Heat the zucchini strips in the frying pan, turn the heat down to medium because this can burn easily.
- Once zucchini is slightly brown, remove from the pan.
- Add the ground beef to the pan and heat until brown.
- Once the ground beef is brown, drain excess fat from the pan.
- Add the pizza sauce, parsley and Italian seasoning blend.
- Cook on medium high for about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile mix the ricotta cheese, 2 cups mozzarella cheese and Romano cheese together in a bowl.
- Using a 16 x 8 baking pan (or similar size) spray with olive oil cooking Spray.
- Add the cheese mixture to the bottom of the baking pan.
- Mix the meat with the onions, garlic and mushrooms together.
- Add the meat mixture to the baking pan.
- Lay the zucchini strips on top of the meat mixture.
- Add 2 cups of mozzarella and the Parmesan cheese to the baking pan.
- Bake for 25 minutes. Let it cool for about 5-10 minutes.
