Keto Lasagna With Meatza Layers
It’s a little more work to make the meatza as it’s prepped and baked separately. However, it’s definitely worth it as it’s a great keto sub for noodles. You could opt for a no noodle keto lasagna. But, I’ve found that those are a bit of a mess and need to be served in bowls.
For a true lasagna, you need to make it in layers. But, one of those layers doesn’t necessarily have to be a noodle. You can use a meat or vegetable instead. In fact, you don’t have time to make the meatza, simply use thin deli meat slices like turkey or chicken. There are so many options for a keto lasagna! When I made the meatza, I used a single 9×13 baking pan. However, the slices were too thick so I cut them to make them thinner.
