Notes

6.7 NET CARBS PER SERVING 

For the best results with the eggplant, salt it to help release some of the water and then dry it well with paper towels.

Roast it in the oven first to give it a workable, pliable texture and great flavor.

There is no need to peel the eggplant, in fact, it is more stable in the casserole if you don’t.

Don’t use too much sauce. You want it to be an accent, not the predominant flavor. If there is too much sauce it can make the no noodles lasagna too runny.

When the low carb eggplant lasagna comes out of the oven, let it rest for a few minutes to set up.

Storing:The best way to store your leftover eggplant lasagna, is to place it in an airtight container which will keep it fresh for about 5 days.

Reheating: Can be done in the oven or the microwave.

In the microwave: Cover your portion with a paper towel and heat for 1-2 minutes.

In the oven: Place the leftover eggplant lasagna in an oven safe dish and stick it in the oven or the toaster oven for about 10 minutes at 350 degrees.

Freezing: The eggplant lasagna can be frozen either before it’s cooked or after. Just be sure to wrap the baking dish properly in freezer paper, a freezer bag, or foil. It will last 2-3 months.
