Cabbage Lasagna
Low Carb Recipe
Instead of carb-laden noodles, this recipe uses cabbage. You may be surprised at how close this tastes to real lasagna with the oregano, tomato paste, mozzarella, etc.
The humble cabbage is a very versatile vegetable. It's great for coleslaw, but cabbage can bring so much more to your table. Some varieties are great sources of vitamin C.
