Ciao! One of my favorite Italian dishes that I absolutely love is lasagna. Do you know what I don’t love? The heavy carbs that make me tired from the food coma. To replace these noodles, I use thinly sliced Italian zucchini as a replacement; this vegetable is low carb and adds a hearty texture to this dish. Bonus, you can still get your protein from the ricotta cheese (about 6oz of protein per serving) and sprinkle some dry jack for a slightly nutty flavor and crispy top layer.

Since I like to support my local farmers (Real California Milk represents California’s more than 1,300 dairy farmers – 99% family-run), I picked a brand that’s part of the Real California Milk family (Click HERE for brands/locations); be sure to check the label so you know it’s from the local CA farmers. This post is sponsored by Real California Milk but all recipes and opinions are my own.
