Lasagna with Keto Noodles

Keto Recipes > Keto Dinner Recipes

Lasagna is a classic casserole that reminds me of grandma’s home cooking. (Or if we’re being honest, my grandma home cooking the giant casserole from the freezer aisle.) Noodles, tomato, beef, and cheese. How can we possibly have this while staying keto?

Lasagna with Keto Noodles

You guessed it! We’re using a cheese-based dough to create keto-friendly noodles. Then we layer those with a meaty tomato sauce, and a special cheese topping. Instead of ricotta, we cut the carbs with a cheesy spread made from mozzarella, sour cream, and Parmesan.
