MomJim here, it was seriously delicious!!! I’m a mother of five. I have too cook two separate meals. I made this lasagna with the difference of not boiling the noodles. I threw it on a griddle with a little bit of oil (I was running out of time, lol) . It shrunk a little. Three of my kids tried it and asked me if they could have my keto lasagna instead of their regular dinner. I’d say, that was a success! Thank you again!!!
