Creamy Baked Beef Lasagna
Sautéed lean beef and tender zucchini layered between whole grain noodles and a velvety cottage cheese sauce, baked until the golden cheese topping is bubbly and fragrant.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz 93% lean ground beef
1.5 sheets whole grain lasagna noodles
0.5 cup low-fat cottage cheese
0.5 cup sugar-free marinara sauce
0.5 cup zucchini
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef with sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and oregano until fully cooked.
Stir the marinara sauce into the beef and simmer for 2-3 minutes; meanwhile, slice the zucchini into very thin rounds.
In a small bowl or blender, pulse the cottage cheese until smooth to create a creamy, protein-packed white sauce.
In a small individual oven-safe baking dish, spread a thin layer of meat sauce, followed by a piece of lasagna noodle (broken to fit).
Layer on more meat sauce, half of the zucchini slices, and a dollop of the creamy cottage cheese.
Repeat the layers once more, finishing with the remaining cottage cheese and a sprinkle of grated parmesan.
Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the top is golden and the noodles are tender.
