Yes, you can have lasagna if you are on a low-carb diet! This delicious, cheesy lasagna uses tofu instead of pasta for a low-carb version of a classic dish. The spinach and broccoli add extra flavor and nutrition.

Ingredients

  • 28oz Firm or extra firm tofu (2 packages, 14 oz. each)
  • 15oz Ricotta Cheese (Part Skim)
  • 8oz Shredded mozzarella cheese (For less fat, try light cheese (ex: Weight Watchers))
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 handful fresh basil
  • 1 handful fresh spinach
  • 2 cups Freeze Dried Broccoli
  • 2 cups Marinara sauce

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Slice the tofu into thin, uniform slices.
Step 2
Mince the garlic and add to the ricotta cheese along with a few torn basil leaves for added flavor.
Step 3
Spread a thin layer of sauce in a baking dish. Add tofu slices over the sauce.

Step 4
Spoon ricotta mixture on top of the tofu and top with 1/3 of the freeze dried broccoli, spinach, and basil leaves. Sprinkle with a small handful of the mozzarella; saving most of it for the top layer.
