Lasagna recipes with no PASTA!!??

elladuffy91 · September 2012

I read somewhere about someone who made it without using the carb pasta lasagna sheets, they had a different alternative but I do not remember

any ideas?

You can use zucchini in place of the pasta

It adds a lot of yummy flavor to the lasagna!

That sounds so good. I am a pasta freak but love zucchini. That is something I'll have to try.

you can use eggplants as well

yep - eggplants are great!

I've seen both eggplant and zuchini used. Also cottage cheese in place of ricotta but ricotta isn't that high in fat.

SonicaBE · September 2012

I agree- I have used eggplant in the past and it comes out great. I think Ill make that for dinner tinite!!!

Also, instead of ricotta- I use lowfat cottage cheese.

I haven't tried this recipe of hers, but I've liked several others. I recommend the site in general.

Please share your recipe!

Thanks!

but the problem is, zukes are foul vegetables sent here by the debbil hisself. and eggplants aren't far behind. Slimy veggies- barf.

Anne Burrell used butternut squash on an show of hers that I watched. The butternut squash held together better and maintained a more lasagna noodle consistency.

I saw some people use leeks on the TV. They cut them into sheets and parboiled them to straighten them out.

My son made it once for a cooking class where he used big pieces of spinach leaves instead of pasta. It sounds disgusting to me (I love the noodles) but apparently the teacher and others in the class that ate it said it was delicious. My son didn't try it though as he doesn't like spinach.

SuffolkSally · September 2012

Unrolled leeks (slit a leek along its length and separate), blanched to tenderise, can be used in place of pasta sheets

I use wonton wrappers and make little mini lasagnas in cupcake tins. I got the recipe on this site- Lasagna Cupcakes. They're yummy :-)

the hairy bikers did this! they used leek leaves instead of lasagne sheets.

havent tried it yet as hubby thinks it will be awful but i might make two smaller ones instead!! lol.

This is the Biggest Loser lasagna recipe. I usually add a bit more sauce and cheese (yum!) and it's super delish! (I've used zucchini and eggplant, both are AWESOME in this dish!)

This! I made it and it tastes fabulous! My 11 year old leek hating son didn't even realise it wasn't pasta!

Candida1983 · September 2012

I just looked at the calories, Biggest Loser vs. Skinny Taste, and the Biggest Loser is lower calories too. :bigsmile:

JMWdiet · September 2012

Ive heard that some people use SOFT taco shells.

AniOmni · September 2012

Try using spaghetti-squash. I've tried it, and it makes a good substitute if you don't like eggplant or zucchini.

lieselLalor · September 2012

I agree, I make it with eggplant and it's great. Or you can make a mexican-style lasagna and use tortilla shells. If you are looking for a brand of pasta though Dreamfields pasta is low carb.

This but drain as much liquid off as possible it's great! :bigsmile:

and it's the hairy bikers by the way! x

MGarcia0504 · September 2012

I actually just found that same recipe but I'm going to leave out the meat and use the low fat traditional prego so that I can make it tonight. It looks delicious. My son is a really picky eater so I'm going to tell him the zucchini is green pasta. lol! Let's hope that works.

I vote for the Lasagna Cupcakes. They're delicious.

I've used Won-Ton wrappers to make mini lasagna in a cupcake tin. They crisp up nicely and are super low carb/calorie.
