The Best Keto Lasagna Bake

This Keto Lasagna Bake ditches the noodles, and it's so simple, you'll wonder why you didn't try it sooner. Sometimes simple is best, and that's exactly what this recipe is!

One of the best parts about this recipe is that the ingredients are so simple. All you for this completely mouthwatering dish need is:


You’ll Need:


  • 1 lb Ground Beef
  • 1/2 lb Italian Sausage
  • 1 tsp Oregano, divided
  • 1/2 cup Ricotta Cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped white onion
  • 1 1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
  • 3/4 tsp Garlic Powder, divided
  • 1 cup Shredded Mozzarella, divided
  • 2/3 cup Parmesan Cheese, divided
  • Chopped parsley, for garnish (optional)


Instructions:


  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  2. In a 12-inch cast iron skillet (or other oven safe equivalent), brown the ground beef and ground sausage together over medium heat on the stovetop until no pink remains (about 15 minutes). Drain the excess fat and return to heat.
  3. Add the onion to the pan and saute with meat until it begins to soften, 3-5 minutes. Pour the sauce, 1/2 tsp oregano and 1/2 tsp garlic powder into the pan with the meat sauce and allow to simmer for 5 minutes.
  4. In a medium bowl, mix the ricotta, 1/2 cup of mozzarella, and 1/3 cup of the Parmesan. Add a bit of salt and pepper to taste and add the remaining oregano and garlic powder to the cheese mixture and fold until completely combined.
  5. Turn off the heat and spread the meat around the pan until it's an even layer. Place spoonfuls of the cheese mixture around the pan, pushing them down a bit with your spoon to the bottom of the pan.
  6. Sprinkle the top with the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan. Bake for 20 minutes until bubbling and the top begins to turn golden. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired. Serve warm.
