What Makes This Recipe So Good
On keto and missing pasta? This recipe is a game-changer! You’ll have a hard time believing this isn’t “real” lasagna.This recipe replaces noodles with layers of Crepini Egg Thins, making it super low carb without being watery, like it can be with vegetable substitutes.It’s super easy to make! While you can absolutely make your own tomato sauce, this recipe calls for low carb store bought sauce for ease.It’s a great make-ahead meal! Assemble everything as instructed, cover, and keep it in the refrigerator up to a day. You can bake it straight from the refrigerator, though you may need to increase the cooking time since it’s starting cold.
Key Ingredients
Egg Thins – Crepini Egg Thins with Cauliflower are grain-free, paleo-friendly, keto-friendly, gluten-free, dairy-free, and sugar-free, with only 8 calories and ZERO carbs per egg thin. Besides using them as lasagna “noodles”, I love to use them as tortilla replacements in enchiladas or turkey wraps. You can find them online or at most Costcos, Aldis, Walmarts, Sprouts, and Publix. Use Crepini’s product locator to find them in a store near you! These are available in a large size and a small size – this recipe uses the small egg thins.Philadelphia Cream Cheese – If you’re on keto, you already know how amazing cream cheese can be. It makes recipes thick and creamy, and it’s a great source for fat. Philadelphia brand cream cheese is my favorite because it has only 1g of carbs per serving, which is significantly lower than other brands I’ve found.
Chef’s Tips
To prevent your foil sticking to the top layer of cheese, spray the cheese side of the foil with cooking spray, and make sure it doesn’t touch the cheese!The egg thins are essentially crepes, so they’re very thin. Be careful as you’re spreading the cheese and sauce as the egg thins can tear easily.Leftovers? Yes, please! The prepared keto lasagna can be covered and refrigerated for 3 to 5 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave.This recipe can easily be made vegetarian! Use 1/2 pound of vegetarian Italian sausage (like Beyond Italian Sausage) instead of regular sausage. Chop the Beyond sausage, fry until heated through, then add the marinara, water, cream cheese, and heavy cream as instructed.
