“Noodless” Lasagna

May 18, 2009|Richard Nikoley||

I’ll go through my own recipe and procedure in another post, probably tomorrow. But this should work with any lasagna recipe, of which there are hundreds. Now, that’s step one. Step two is to go out an look up moussaka recipes and find out how to do the eggplant layers. Combine the two and you’ve got a lasagna that will come out pretty amazing. Update: Here’s the detailed recipe.

    Richard, that looks great! You need to start a low-carb paleo restaurant chain. How about "Old Macdonald's" or "PaleoKing" ? :)

    I vote for the restaurant chain too – can't happen too soon! Richard this could be one of your callings – I know – a show on the cooking channel!

    Looks super yummy! Mmmmmm! Can't wait to hear all about it.

    WOW, I love Bryanoz4's suggestion. *Someone* really does need to do that! Multiple people. And I bet it will eventually happen, too.

    I have fried the eggplant and baked it. In olive oil. Dipping it in egg then potato flour. Works very well. Of course I season it well first. Drain it on a wirerack. Then layer it with sauces and cheese etc. You can also use zucchini,especially when you grow them in you garden and they get too big. Cook the same way. You can also make the sauce meatless and then make mini meatballs and layer those. Just fun to get a meat ball every so often.

    Thanks for the vote of confidence, but pretty unlikely for me. I do like the idea of doing some cooking videos at some future point.

    Very good. And a good writeup, as excess moisture is definitely an issue.
