Easy Keto Vegetarian Lasagna

  • Easy Keto Vegetarian Lasagna

I made this keto and low carb zucchini lasagna for a family member who is vegetarian (yes…. breathe in and out, lord help me accept the things I cannot change). The challenge is to keep the moisture down while increasing the flavor and texture because there are no starchy noodles to soak up the yummy sauce. I cooked this lasagna extra time and added some eggs to the ricotta cheese food cheesy real food goodness.

You may also like my paleo and low carb variation of Eggplant Moussaka Recipe a traditional dish of baked lamb and eggplant topped with a béchamel sauce made with cheese and wheat flour, is common throughout the Balkans and Middle East.
