LASAGNA PROTEIN NOODLE |
It's time for the party. Probably you had this challenge sometime in your life. You have a party, some of the guesses are not Keto, you know many of them love lasagna and you want to impress everyone. What should I do? Good news, this recipe is exactly what you are looking for.
I cooked this lasagna many times in m parties and always get the same feedback. Everyone loved it. It is indistinguishable from normal lasagna. Even it tastes better. I used (Iso pure company). To my surprise, it has a great texture with protein powder.
How To Make A Keto Lasagna Protein Noodle
INGREDIENTS
- 8 oz full-fat cream cheese softened
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tbsp parmesan cheese grated
- 2 scoops unflavored protein powder
- 1⁄2 tsp garlic powder Salt and pepper
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning or mixed of ( dried herb like tarragon, thyme)
LASAGNA FILLING
- 1/4 cup onion minced
- 2 Tbsp avocado oil
- I lb ground beef
- 1⁄4 cup chopped green bell pepper(optional)
- 1 cup sugar-free marinara sauce
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning Salt and pepper
RICOTTA MIXTURE
- 1⁄2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1egg 1 tbsp parmesan cheese
- 1⁄4 cup chopped baby spinach (optional) And 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese for assembling
Instructions:
- To make a protein noodle, Preheat oven to 375°.
- Line a rimmed baking pan with parchment paper In mixing bowl, using a hand mixer, combine together cream cheese and eggs.Next. add Parmesan cheese, protein powder, and spices. Mix to combine. Fold in mozzarella cheese and mix until well incorporated.
- Spread the mixture into the baking dish, forming an even layer Bake for 20-25 minutes. When the "noodles' are done baking, Set cheese noodles aside to let cool While noodles are cooling, prepare your meat sauce. In a large skillet, add onion and ground beef.
- Cook on medium heat until meat is browned. Add in Italian seasoning and marinara sauce. Reduce to low heat and cook at a simmer for about 5 minutes.
- Make a mix of ricotta cheese with parmesan and one egg with sail and garlic powder then add chopped spinach.
ASSEMBLING LASAGNA
- Evenly slice your protein noodle into thirds. Your slices should just fa into a loaf pan or casserole pan Add a thin layer of meat sauce to the bottom of the pan.
- Add the first noodle layer over meat sauce. Add 1/3 of the remaining meat sauce across the first noodle layer.
- Spread 3 tbsp of ricotta cheese mixture across. Sprinkle some mozzarella cheese across. Repeat with the second noodle, meat sauce, ricotta, and mozzarella. Add the third noodle. Top with remaining meat sauce.
- Sprinkle on remaining mozzarella. If desired you can add a pinch of dried herb seasoning to the cheese. I like to finely crumble a pinch of dried oregano and add it to the cheese. Bake lasagna in the middle of your oven at 350F for about 25 minutes, and broil 2 minutes to allow the cheese to brown.
- Let lasagna cool slightly before slicing and serving. If desired, sprinkle on some finely chopped fresh basil, oregano and parsley, and freshly grated parmesan cheese before serving.
