What speaks for the zucchini lasagna
A lot. Very much. :) Zucchini lasagna is ready much faster than a normal lasagna.
Because while the normal recipe takes a relatively long time until the pasta sheets are soft, the low carb pasta sheets are ready in less than half the time.
The zucchini itself speaks for the low carb lasagna recipe. Because zucchini consists mostly of water - which also explains the few calories.
There are 20 calories in 100 grams of zucchini. By comparison, 100 grams of lasagna sheets contain 350 calories.
The zucchini contains minerals such as calcium, which is important for bones. Iron, which we need for blood formation. Also, vitamins A and C.

If you like to cook for yourself and are careful about low carbs, then you will find many more recipes in the Happy Carb Cookbook . To be precise, there are 150 low carb recipes that are really delicious. I also got the inspiration for the lasagna from the book. The book is by blogger Bettina Meiselbach, who herself is an enthusiastic low-carber and has thus lost 60 kg.
But even if you do not want to lose weight or do not eat low carb permanently, the book is worth a clear recommendation. You will find a lot of variety and what I like so much: recipes that can be prepared quickly.
Tip: A vegetable peeler (economy peeler) makes it very easy to cut the green and yellow vegetables into thin slices.

- Cut the mozzarella and zucchini into thin slices.
- The first layer of your lasagna is the ground beef sauce. It is followed by a row of zucchini. Then the mozzarella.

Our conclusion
And convinced by the zucchini lasagna? You save a lot of calories and benefit from many other advantages that zucchini provide.
If your low carb lasagna has become too runny, it may be due to the tomatoes. Especially in winter, they are often watery. Make sure that the sauce does not contain too much liquid. And if the zucchini lasagna is still too liquid, it doesn't matter. It still tastes good :)
