Traditional lasagna noodles are swapped out for fat head noodles in this recipe. These are made with almond flour and mozzarella cheese. This version is low in carbs and high in fat, but it tastes just as good as the original.

Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese. 3/4 cup almond flour. 2 tbsp cream cheese. 1 egg. 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning. 1/4 tsp garlic powder. 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese. 1/2 lb ground beef. 1/2 cup low-carb marinara sauce. 1 cup ricotta cheese. 1 cup spinach, chopped. 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese. Salt and pepper to taste.

Instructions: Warm the oven up to 175F 350C. Shred mozzarella cheese, almond flour, and cream cheese together in a bowl that can go in the microwave. After 1 minute in the microwave, stir until everything is well mixed. Crack the egg into the bowl and add the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix until you get a dough. Lay the dough out on two pieces of parchment paper and roll it out into a straight line. Make strips of dough about the size of noodles and set them aside. Put the ground beef in a pan and cook it over medium-low heat until it turns brown. Remove any extra fat, and then add the marinara sauce. Put away. Roughly chop the spinach and add it to a different bowl. Then, add the shredded mozzarella cheese and mix them together. Add pepper and salt. Put the fat head noodles in a baking dish first, then the meat sauce, and finally the ricotta mixture. Repeat steps 1-3 until all the ingredients are used up. Add a layer of the ricotta mixture on top to finish. Put foil over the baking dish and bake for 20 minutes. Once you take off the foil, bake for another 10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown. Take a few minutes to let the lasagna cool down before you serve it. Have fun!

Instead of pasta, this recipe calls for spaghetti squash, which is healthier and lower in carbs. It's a creamy and filling take on traditional spaghetti Alfredo. The soft chicken breast pieces give the rich Alfredo sauce protein and flavor.

Ingredients: 1 medium spaghetti squash. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced. 2 tablespoons olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste. 1 cup heavy cream. 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 1 tablespoon butter. Fresh parsley for garnish optional.

Instructions: Get the oven ready by heating it up to 400F 200C. Split the spaghetti squash in half down the middle, and then scoop out the seeds. Add salt and pepper, along with the olive oil. Put it on a baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper, cut side down. For 40 to 45 minutes, or until soft. In the meantime, put olive oil in a pan and heat it over medium heat. Add the chicken dices to the pan and season with salt and pepper. About 8 to 10 minutes later, the chicken should be fully cooked and browned on the outside. Take the chicken out of the pan and set it aside. Over medium heat, melt the butter in the same pan. Add the minced garlic and cook for about one to two minutes, until the garlic smells good. Turn down the heat and slowly add the heavy cream, stirring it in all the time until it's fully heated through. Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese and stir it in until it melts and is smooth. When the squash is done, use a fork to pull the flesh apart into long strands. Put the cooked chicken and spaghetti squash strands into the pan with the Alfredo sauce. Toss everything together until it's all well mixed and hot. Serve right away, and if you want, top with fresh parsley.
