Uber Low Carb High Protein Lasagna

Low Carb Lasagna

6 large eggs (3.6 grams)
6 tablespoons of water OR heavy cream
Olive oil (0 grams)
1 lb ground beef, browned in olive oil and cooled completely (0 grams)
Salt and Pepper
1 tub ricotta cheese (12 grams)
1 large egg (0.6 grams)
1 package frozen spinach,(1/2-3/4 fresh) thawed and squeezed dry (3 grams)
1 ½ cup marinara** sauce (20 grams)
3-4 handfuls of shredded mozzarella cheese (1.6 grams)
¼ cup shredded parmesan cheese (1.5 grams)
1-2 pats of butter

Beat six 6 eggs with 6 tablespoons water. Heat a 10" non-stick fry pan. With a small ladle pour 1/6 of your egg mixture into your fry pan. Twirl it around to coat the whole bottom. When it starts to se****ch for the egg to start pulling away from the pan. When that happens CAREFULLY pick up your egg with your fingers (it’s hot!) and flip it to the other side. This takes about 1-2 minutes on each side. It will go fast. You should end up with 6 large crepe “noodles". Set aside in fridge.
Tip: You are basically making an egg crepe. You can make lots and freeze for future.

Brown ground beef with a splash of olive oil and salt and pepper. Drain excess fat and let cool completely. (I dry with paper towels to keep a dry lasagna) Set aside.

In a bowl, mix the ricotta cheese and egg. Set aside.

Squeeze excess water from your thawed spinach. Set aside.

In bottom of a 9x13 baking dish, spread a little marinara sauce. Place 2 of your egg crepe noodles on top of the sauce, covering your baking dish. Don’t worry if it doesn’t fit completely perfect or you have to overlap it. Spread you ricotta cheese mixture on top of the crepe. Spread your spinach of top of the ricotta. Put 2 more of you egg crepe noodles on top of spinach. Spread your cooled ground beef over top. Pour a little marinara sauce over beef to moisten just a little. Put a handful of mozzarella cheese and some parmesan over the beef as well. Lay your final 2 egg crepe noodles over top and sprinkle with the leftover mozzarella and parmesan.

Cut up 1-2 pats of butter and sprinkle over top of the cheeses. Cover with foil and bake at 375 degrees until top is bubbling. Uncover and bake for 5-10 minutes until top is brown. Let cool for 5 minutes then serve.

**Tip: Make your own marinara sauce to ensure there is no added sugar. Saute ¼ onion in a little olive oil. In a handy chopper, blend one can of whole plum tomatoes (no sugar added) (Unico brand in only 5 carbs per ½ cup). Add tomatoes to pot. Add some salt and pepper and a handful of fresh chopped parsley. Let simmer for 5-10 minutes and your done.
