This keto lasagna uses deli meat instead of noodles, and you’ll barely taste the difference.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
12 ounces ground beef
12 ounces bulk Italian sausage
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 jar (24 ounces) pasta sauce
8 ounces thinly sliced deli chicken (12 slices)
1/2 pound thinly sliced deli pepperoni
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Directions

Preheat oven to 425°. In a large skillet heat oil over medium heat. Cook beef, sausage, onion and garlic until meat is no longer pink, 6-8 minutes, breaking it into crumbles; drain, return to pan. Stir in pasta sauce; heat through.
Spread 1 cup sauce into a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Layer with half the sliced chicken, half the sliced pepperoni, 2 cups sauce and half of each cheese. Repeat layers.
Bake, covered, 25 minutes. Uncover; bake until cheese is browned and lasagna is bubbling, 20-25 minutes longer. Let stand 15 minutes before serving.

I love this recipe because you don't miss the pasta in the lasagna. It looks, smells and tastes like the real deal! You can add ricotta cheese or any other kind of cheese you like for variation. —Tammy Kirk, Raleigh, NC
