Keto Zucchini Lasagna Recipe

Using a Mandolin, slice the zucchini along the length to create your pasta, then lay on a baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and set aside.

Place an large deep skillet on a medium high heat and once hot add the ground beef and sauté for 5 minutes.

Add the onion, garlic, parsley, and Italian seasoning and sauté until the meat is fully cooked.

Place a thin layer of the marinara sauce onto the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.

 Stir in the rest of the marinara with the ground beef and simmer on medium-low for 5 minutes stirring with a wooden spoon, then remove from the heat and set aside.

Preheat oven to 400 °F/ 204 °C and place a rack in the middle of the oven.

Using a bowl, mix the egg, ricotta and Parmesan until a smooth creamy mixture and set aside.

Using paper towels pat the slices of zucchini dry and remove as much moisture as you can.

Now begin to layer the ingredients in the baking dish, place some slices of zucchini on top of the thin layer of marinara sauce followed by the meat sauce, then the creamed cheese mixture.

Continue layering until all ingredients are used then top with mozzarella cheese and bake in the oven for 45 minutes. If you have a broiler use it to melt the mozzarella into a golden top.

Remove from the oven, let cool for 15 minutes, then cut into squares and serve warm.
