Low Carb Lasagna
1 step
Prep:5minCook:40min
Our pasta-free lasagna uses courgette strips to reduce the energy density of this dish and it is also high in protein making it a considerably healthier and more satiating version compared to supermarket lasagnas. It still tastes great though. Vegetarians can use a non-meat mince substitute in place of the beef mince.

Instructions
Step 1
Chop the garlic and onions and fry them in the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat for 5 minutes. Break up the beef mince and add this and the Worcestershire sauce to the pan. Cook until the mince has browned then add the tinned tomatoes, oregano and a sprinkle of salt and black pepper. Stir well and cook for an additional 10 to 15 minutes until this mixture has thickened. Add more salt and pepper if required. Thinly slice the courgette and evenly place a third of these slices in the base of a medium-sized ovenproof dish. Spoon over half of the mince again spreading it evenly before covering this with another layer of courgette strips. Mix a teaspoon of nutmeg into the ricotta and spread half of this mixture over the courgette. Sprinkle over 30g of Parmesan cheese then add one more layer of mince, courgette strips, ricotta and Parmesan. Place the dish in a oven preheated at 200C and bake for around 15 minutes until the top has browned. Allow to cool before serving. Makes 4 large portions.
