Low Carb Zucchini Lasagna Bites

 Ingredients

 2 large zucchinis, thinly sliced
1 cup ricotta cheese / cottage cheese
1 egg
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 cup marinara sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Olive oil for greasing

 

Preparations

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a muffin tin with olive oil.

 

Thinly slice the zucchinis lengthwise using a sharp knife. Set aside.

 

In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, egg, Parmesan cheese, dried basil, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.

 

Place one zucchini slice at the bottom of each muffin tin cup. Top with a small spoonful of the ricotta mixture, followed by a small dollop of marinara sauce, and a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese.

 

Repeat the layering process (zucchini, ricotta mixture, marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese) until the muffin cups are full, finishing with a layer of mozzarella cheese on top.

 

Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden and bubbly.

 

Let the lasagna bites cool for a few minutes before removing them from the muffin tin. Serve warm and enjoy!

 

Marinara sauce is a simple tomato-based sauce typically made with tomatoes, garlic, onions, and herbs like oregano. It's a staple in Italian-American cuisine and is known for its bright, fresh flavor.

For a simple marinara sauce substitute, tomato sauce or pizza sauce are good options, especially when combined with added herbs and spices.
