Do you love lasagna but don't want to make a gigantic casserole dish of it AND you are watching the foods you eat? Here is a super easy, quick recipe for a healthy version of one of my favorites.
Optavia 5&1 compliant
If follow Optavia (or another low carb diet plan), this lasagna is 5&1 compliant. One serving equals 3/4 leanest, 1/2 lean, 3 greens, 1 fat, and 2 (or 3) condiments - your choice.
This is a super yummy meal that fills that lasagna craving and its made in a single serving. Which, can also be frozen for a later time on those rushed nights that you have no time to cook or just don't know what to eat. This will save you from making a not so great decision when in a pinch for a meal.
Palmini Noodles - life savers!
If you haven't tried Palmini Noodles (hearts of palm) you are missing out!! I order them on Amazon and I am sure you might be able to find them in stores. But for me, it's a no brainer with Amazon as it just shows up at my door. These noodles have the consistence of a regular noodle. You cook then like a spaghetti noodle. I tend to shorten the cook time (cuz I am I'm patient) which just created a firmer noodle. It is your preference on how long to cook them. They help absorb the flavor in of the meal you are cooking in. I love them for an easy "green" for any meal - 1 package equals 2 greans so its such a great easy shelf stable green that for you to take anywhere.
So take a chance and give this recipe a try! You won't be disappointed
Planning is everything! And makes life easier with cooking for 1 or on a diet/healthy lifestyle
