KETO LASAGNA WITH MEATZA LAYERS
A keto lasagna for meat lovers! Rather than try to sneak in a vegetable for the pasta layer, meatza slices are used in this low carb casserole.
I’ve been eating a lot less dairy these days. I did go a couple months without any, but gave in over the holidays. I’m blaming the low carb tiramisu.
Another one of my weaknesses is cheese. The alternatives aren’t that great so you really need the real thing.
I haven’t made the pumpkin lasagna in a while. But, I really love that it uses pumpkin instead of tomato. It’s a nice change from the regular low carb marinara sauce.
To get the right thickness for the meatza, you’ll want to bake them in two 9×13 baking pans or a large sheet pan.
Most keto lasagna recipes add the parmesan cheese in with the ricotta and egg. But, I decided to mix it into the low carb marinara sauce instead.
