Ingredients
Ground beef or turkey
Cauliflower or zucchini
Cream cheese
Shredded mozzarella
Marinara sauce (sugar-free)
Italian seasoning
Optional: spinach or bell peppers
Instructions
Prep Your Ingredients: Start by chopping all your vegetables and gathering your ingredients. This will make the cooking process more enjoyable and efficient. If you’re using cauliflower, break it into small florets to create the ‘noodle’ base for your baked ziti.
Start Cooking: In a large skillet over medium heat, brown your ground beef or turkey. Make sure to break it up into crumbles as it cooks. Drain any excess fat, and add in your marinara sauce, cream cheese, and Italian seasoning. Stir until everything is well combined and heated through.
Combine and Finish Cooking: Now, add your cauliflower or zucchini to the sauce mixture, ensuring every piece is coated with the sauce. Transfer this mixture into a baking dish and sprinkle mozzarella cheese generously over the top. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve and Enjoy: Once out of the oven, let your Best Baked Ziti cool for a few minutes before serving. This will allow it to set a bit, making it easier to portion. Serve it up with your favorite keto-friendly side dishes, and enjoy the comforting flavors!
