    Vegetarian Zucchini Lasagna

    Nut FreeEgg FreeLow CarbVegetarianKeto

    An easy keto vegetarian lasagna made with zucchini noodles and a three cheese filling make a delicious and hearty dish with an irrestible creamy textures.

    This vegetarian zucchini lasagna with no noodles has a blend of three cheeses is so delicious it will become a family favourite.  The cheese layer is a blend of ricotta, cream cheese and mozzarella.  Add a low carb marinara sauce and every bite is a delicious blend of vegetable and cheese.

    HOW TO AVOID SOGGY ZUCCHINI NOODLES

    I grill the zucchini slices before making the lasagne to make sure that they are not watery. It is a personal preference, but I find when you are using vegetables as a pasta sheet replacement you get a firmer result if you grill them first. I do this with both zucchini and eggplant. It helps with the water content and having to salt them, wait and then use the vegetables.

    HOW TO MAKE LOWCARB ZUCCHINI LASAGNA

    A low carb zucchini lasagna is easy to assemble. Slice the zucchini, grill it, mix the cheese filling, layer the zucchini, cheese and low carb marinara.

    ZUCCHINI LASAGNA TIPS

    You could use a mix of other cheeses as a strong cheddar, gouda or vegetarian Parmesan.

    For a very hearty dish, add cooked mushrooms or spinach as an additional layer.

    This can be assembled ahead and kept in the fridge before baking.
