Just Wanted To Share This
« on: January 28, 2012, 08:13:07 AM »
So ~ I made lasagna last night using cabbage leaves in place of the noodles and my husband couldn't even tell the difference ~ SCORE!!!!  Hubbie is eating lower carb with me since I do ALL the cooking and shopping  ;D

Would love this recipe! Did you just layer raw cabbage leaves and then back it with all the other "normal" lasagna ingredients?

I make my own sauce to keep it sugar free.  Just brown the beef, onions & garlic then add spices and crushed canned tomatoes & olive oil.  Let that simmer for at least 30 mins.  You do need to boil the cabbage leaves until almost tender because it will not bake long enough to make them tender.  Then just layer like a regular lasagna.  Sauce then cabbage then sauce then mozz cheese & parm cheese ~ the top layer needs to be cheese.  Bake 30-45 mins at 350 depending on how big the pan is.  Super easy!!  I use the homemade sauce for alot of things.  It's also good on top of mashed cauliflower or zucchini noodles, etc.

I wonder if I could crock-pot this. I cook regular lasagna in the crock-pot quite often, or at least I used to before FTS. I wonder if it work work with the cabbage leaves instead? Hmmm ...

Glad ya'll like the recipe!!  Rena ~ I don't see any reason why you couldn't do this in the crockpot ~ I think you will still need to parboil the cabbage leaves first though.  Ya'll have a GREAT evening!
