- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup marinara sauce (sugar-free)
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning

- For the Cheese Filling:
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 oz cream cheese
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
Instructions:
- Prepare the Meat Sauce:
- In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain excess fat.
- Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook until the onion is translucent.
- Stir in the marinara sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Prepare the Cheese Filling:
- In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, egg, dried basil, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
- Prepare the Dough:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir. Microwave for an additional 30 seconds if needed until the cheeses are melted and well combined.
- Add almond flour, baking powder, egg, garlic powder, and onion powder to the melted cheese mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
- Assemble the Lasagna Bombs:
- Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and flatten it into a circle on the prepared baking sheet.
- Place a spoonful of the meat sauce in the center of each dough circle, followed by a spoonful of the cheese filling.
- Carefully fold the edges of the dough over the filling to form a sealed ball. Make sure there are no gaps or leaks.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
- Serve:
- Enjoy your Keto Lasagna Bombs warm, optionally garnished with fresh basil or parsley.
