Think beyond pasta and make keto lasagna stuffed sausage. It’s a savory, spicy, and extra cheesy dinner that fills you up.
Stuffed Sausage
There are so many ways to be creative with food when you follow a low-carb diet. If you’re feeling bored with the same old recipes, then make this stuffed sausage for dinner. It will wake you up from your boredom and make you enjoy cooking again!
It’s bursting with Italian flavors and since it’s made with so much cheese, it’s both high in healthy fats and high in protein.
It’s ready in less than an hour so it’s even faster than ordering delivery.
Sausage Lasagna
Italian sausages are thick and juicy with lots of incredible flavor! For this recipe, you’ll stuff the sausages with your favorite lasagna ingredients and smother them with low-carb marinara sauce.
You can make your own marinara sauce out of tomatoes and Italian spices, but it’s so much easier to just buy pre-made sauce that doesn’t have any added sugar in it. My favorite brand is Rao’s homemade. It’s pure and zesty and totally keto-friendly.
Keto Lasagna
I’ve made keto-friendly lasagna in a few different ways before. If you really love lasagna, then make these recipes too! Try some keto lasagna roll-ups for lunch (they are quick and easy and the perfect finger food).
Or sink your teeth into some earthy and hearty keto eggplant lasagna. On a really cold day, a bowl of creamy keto lasagna soup can warm you up from the inside out.
Lasagna Without Noodles
I’ve made keto zucchini taco lasagna before and loved how the zucchini tasted and replaced the noodles. Plus, it has a delicious taco flavor!
But when you really want to make something that is so different that you don’t even miss the noodles, stuff some Italian sausages with some cheese and top with marinara sauce. It’s a delicious dinner!
Plus, you can store it in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to three days and use this in your meal prep all week.
What To Eat With Lasagna
When you make keto lasagna, serve it with all of your favorite keto-friendly Italian recipes. Start out with copycat Olive Garden salad. It has all of your favorite Italian flavors and a delicious dressing.
If you want something sweet, make some strawberry cucumber salad instead. On the side, serve some keto garlic knots. They always go well with lasagna.
For some veggies, add some garlic butter zucchini and squash. They will perfectly complement all the garlicky goodness in the stuffed sausage lasagna.
