This low carb lasagne replaces pasta with thin courgette ribbons layered between rich beef mince ragù and a creamy cheese sauce made with cream cheese, Cheddar and Parmesan.

About this recipe
Low Carb Lasagne in the Thermomix TM7 proves you can enjoy all the comfort of classic Italian lasagne without a single sheet of pasta. Searching for a low carb lasagne recipe or keto dinner ideas ends here: thin courgette ribbons stand in beautifully for pasta, layered with a rich beef mince ragù and a silky cheese sauce built from cream cheese, Cheddar and Parmesan. The all-in-one kitchen machine handles the heavy lifting, mixing the ragù with garlic and seasonings while gentle heating keeps the dairy-based sauce smooth and lump-free. Each serving delivers generous protein and just a fraction of the carbohydrates of traditional lasagne. This is the perfect quick weeknight dinner for keto followers, families sneaking in extra vegetables, or anyone who loves melted cheese and deep tomato-free ragù flavour. Plain yoghurt and almond milk lighten the sauce, giving a creamy texture without excess carbs, and the golden cheesy topping makes every slice feel indulgent.
Preparation tips
- Salt the courgette ribbons generously and let them rest before patting dry with paper towels; removing excess moisture is essential to prevent a watery lasagne and keep the cheese layers intact when slicing.
- Assemble the lasagne up to a day in advance and keep it covered in the fridge; the courgette, ragù and cream cheese sauce flavours meld overnight, making it an easy make-ahead dinner for busy evenings.
- For a milder family version, reduce the garlic to one clove and swap half the Cheddar for mozzarella; younger eaters enjoy the stretchy melted topping while the dish stays low carb.
- Leftover slices reheat well covered with foil in a moderate oven; add a sprinkle of extra Parmesan before reheating to revive the golden, savoury crust.
Recipe variations
- Vegetarian version: replace the beef mince with finely chopped mushrooms and walnuts cooked with garlic and sea salt; the courgette layers and cream cheese sauce remain unchanged for a meat-free but equally hearty result.
- Festive variation: add crispy pancetta to the ragù and stir fresh basil through the cream cheese sauce; finish with a mix of Cheddar and aged Parmesan for a golden crust worthy of a Christmas dinner table.
