Description

This is an excellent lasagna dish with no noodles! Tasty and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 oz cooked 93% ground beef (2 Leans)
  • 1 cup canned Italian diced tomatoes – less than 5 g of carbs per 1/2 cup – (2 Greens)
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder (1 Condiment)
  • 1/8 tsp salt – optional (.50 Condiment)
  • 1/8 tsp pepper (.25 Condiment)

Cheese Filling

  • 4 oz or 1/2 cup part skim ricotta cheese (2 to 3 g fat per oz) (1/2 Lean)
  • 6 oz or 1 1/2 cups reduced fat mozzarella cheese, divided (1 1/2 Leans)
  • 3 tbsp reduced fat parmesan cheese (3 Condiments)
  • 2 tbsp egg beaters
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder (1 Condiment)
  • 1 tsp Italian Seasoning (2 Condiments)
  • 1/8 tsp pepper (.25 Condiments)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Add tomatoes, garlic powder, salt and pepper to already cooked and weighed ground beef. Simmer for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
  2. Mix the ingredients for the cheese filling using only 3/4 cup of mozzarella.
  3. Fill the bottom of a baking dish with the meat filling and top with the cheese filling. Cover the top with the remaining 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese. Bake for 40 minutes until the top because bubbly. Let cool 10 minutes before slicing (the lasagna will hold together better). Divide into 4 equal portions. These freeze great in those Ziploc containers.
