hi welcome back to my channel so today I
have another really easy keto dinner recipe for you this is something that I
like to have on a regular rotation because my kids like it my husband loves
it and it's really easy to make so it's great for those weeknights when you only
have maybe about a half-hour to make dinner this is going to be your recipe
I'm going to show you how to make keto lasagna so if you want to learn how to
make this then keep watching this is just gonna be a very basic keto
lasagna recipe for the noodles I'm gonna use chicken breasts deli sliced chicken
meat that I picked up from the grocery store this is an idea that I picked up
from Maria Emmerich she's done this before when making lasagna it also works
great for making enchiladas too I have a video on how to make keto enchiladas and
I'll have that linked up above here you can click on the eye or down below in
the description box the recipe for this keto lasagna is very basic but you can
always jazz it up with a little bit more spices but I'm just gonna show you my
simple ingredients that go into it so first off I have a pound of ground beef
certainly use two pounds if you're gonna double the recipe or three pounds of
you're getting triple this recipe makes a really good freezer meal too so I
recommend making up one to have tonight and maybe a second one to have later on
that you can pop in your freezer and you're also gonna need some ricotta
cheese and definitely get the whole milk ricotta cheese don't buy the skim milk
one because remember we need to have as much fat as possible and low amount of
carbs and then of course you want some mozzarella cheese this is about two cups
maybe even three here just I'll leave the macros down below for you of what
I'm gonna be using you might have to adjust it based off of how much cheese
you want and then for the sauce I'm going to be using my favorite sauce
which is Rao's brand sauce I picked this up from thrive market I'll have it
linked down below on where you can purchase it it's the best kind there's
only four net carbs per I think it's a half a cup in here so it's really good
macros on this and then of course like I said we're gonna be using deli meat for
our noodles or lasagna noodles so here is some sliced chicken breast you can
get whatever kind you want turkey works really good too and like I said if you
want to jazz it up a bit which I probably will I'm gonna add some garlic
powder and some basil along with salt and pepper for seasonings in my marinara
sauce the first thing that we're gonna do is brown our ground beef and we're
just gonna cook it on a skillet over medium-high heat with a sprinkling of
salt and pepper for seasoning now it's time for the marinara sauce I'm
gonna add about a half a jar of the Rao's marinara to this recipe and I'm
just gonna let it cook for about five minutes just so that all the flavors can
melt together and now our red sauce is done once the meat is done cooking now
we're ready to assemble the lasagna I'm going to be using a rectangle baking
dish this is like a smaller than an 8 by 10 or 9 by 11 I know it's a smaller size
it says it's 22 quarts I like using this one just because I like thicker layers
of lasagna so I like to use a smaller pan but you can use whatever pan you
want to traditionally lasagnas have a layer of red sauce down at the bottom to
prevent the noodles from sticking then a layer of noodles more red sauce ricotta
cheese and mozzarella cheese and then repeat your layers again with noodle red
sauce ricotta mozzarella cheese so that's what I'm going to do here too so I'm just adding a thin layer of red
sauce just to give it a little fluid down below you could actually pour a
little bit more of the marinara sauce down if you wanted to and not waste your
red sauce it's completely up to you I just like to do this because I like to
save my marinara for another recipe during the week next we add our noodles down and ideally
you just want to lay down one slice at a time sometimes they break that's okay
you can just piece them together now comes our layer of ricotta cheese if you
didn't want to use ricotta cheese I do have a recipe that I posted on my
Instagram showing you how to make a white sauce if you wanted to make your
own white sauce that's a little bit more involved but it's really delicious so
I'm just gonna do a little dollops of ricotta cheese throughout just because
it is a little bit harder to spread and then just kind of spread them evenly if
I can and next our mozzarella cheese get sprinkled on and now we're ready to repeat the layers
laying down some more of our deli chicken slices and some red sauce on the last layer I'm just gonna spread
the red sauce and then top it with some mozzarella cheese so here's our key to
lasagna I'm gonna bake this in the oven at 400 degrees till about like 15
minutes or so until it's nice and bubbly on top thanks for watching guys I hope
