Lasagne is one of my children’s favourite meal, they have it quite often but it is never a Slimming World friendly version for them! They love it with homemade béchamel sauce which can be very high in syns for us slimmers, so I make my own for myself so I can still enjoy the meal guilt free! I use this recipe here for the mince.
Serves: 1
Syns: FREE if using cheese as healthy extra A choice
Time Taken: less than 10 minutes
Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients
- 1 tub of cottage cheese (plain or flavoured, check if syns! I use Aldi’s cottage cheese with chives and onion, FREE)
- 2 eggs
- A pinch of mustard powder
- 40g light cheddar cheese
- Seasoning to taste
Method
Blend the cottage cheese with the eggs, mustard and seasoning with a hand held blender till smooth and no longer lumpy.
Add half of the cheese allowance into the cottage cheese mix.
Layer lasagne with mince, lasagne sheets and cottage cheese mix in an individual dish.
Top the lasagne with the remaining cheese and bake in the oven for around 40 minutes till the pasta is cooked. Cook the first 30 minutes with foil over the dish so the cheese doesn’t burn quickly.
