Giada De Laurentiis' Keto Lasagna Rolls Rely On One Key Ingredient
By Kalea Martin
In Giada De Laurentiis' lasagna rolls recipe, she swaps the noodles for zucchini. This keto-friendly method also takes less time since you don't have to pre-cook the noodles.
De Laurentiis first creates thin slices of zucchini using a peeler and then spoons a filling mixture made of ricotta, spinach, egg, and prosciutto onto each strip.
The zucchini strips are then rolled up like burritos and placed in an oven along with marinara sauce and mozzarella. After a quick 30 minutes, this keto dish is ready to serve.
It's important to note that zucchinis are high in water content, so you should place the strips on a paper towel and salt them to bring out the water from within.
De Laurentiis also recommends spacing out the zucchini rolls in the pan. If they're too close together, they'll steam and get soggy.
