This is another great recipe from ruled.me. The first time I made it as written. Everyone loved it. It reminded me of lasagna so the next time I made it I took out the celery seed and replaced it with Italian Seasoning and fennel. After it was cooked I topped it with a layer of ricotta & then topped it with shredded mozzarella. Back in the oven to brown the top & I’ll never have to miss lasagna again. Note: I did have to use less tomato. I can’t say how much because I used fresh tomatoes from the garden.
I’ll still make it as it is written, sometimes substituting ground Italian sausage for the beef.
This is a fast, easy, versital one pan dish we will enjoy regularly.
Much gratitude for sharing your talents! 🌷
I’m so happy to hear you enjoy it and have your own twists to change up the recipe! The Italian sausage with ricotta sounds absolutely delicious 🙂
But changes the nutritional numbers, right?
Yes, it definitely would – you’d have to recalculate the macros based on the changes/additions that were made. It still sounds like it would fall into keto, though.
Just made this and I have to say it’s a keeper! The whole family loved it! Wouldn’t change a single thing!
