No Noodle Veggie Mug Lasagna for One: A Quick and Nutritious Meal

Who isn’t looking for a quick, healthy, and delicious meal that can be whipped up in minutes? My Layered Veggie Mug Lasagna for One is the perfect, perfectly-portioned solution for those busy lunch hours or hectic evenings when you want to stick to your clean-eating goals and avoid take-out or lackluster packaged meal products.

The entire portion of this no-noodle veggie lasagna has amazing macros to fuel your day. Only 188 calories, 16g carbs, 6g fat and 21 g protein. The protein primarily comes from cottage cheese (2% milkfat) that makes an excellent cheesy, creamy swap for lasagnas signature ricotta cheese.

Also, this healthy comfort food dish replaces traditional lasagna noodles with thinly-sliced zucchini and packs in a variety of fresh veggies, offering a nutritious and satisfying meal. In addition to the zucchini, I used fresh spinach, button mushrooms and grape tomatoes – you can tweak this to suit your taste preferences (and what you might need to use up in your produce bin).

Why You’ll Love This Lasagna in a Mug Recipe:

  • Zucchini Noodles: Swap out carb-heavy pasta with thinly sliced zucchini, adding a delightful crunch and a boost of vitamins. The key for success here is to slice the zucchini very thinly (it cooks quicker) and also to pat it down to remove extra moisture before layering up you mug (this helps prevent watery lasagna).
  • Protein-Packed: As mentioned above, using cottage cheese (I recommend 2%, not 0% milkfat) instead of ricotta provides more protein and less fat, making it a healthier option.
  • Quick and Easy: Assemble your lasagna in a 16-ounce mug (wider mug a better option than tall and skinny) and microwave it in minutes. It’s perfect for a speedy lunch or dinner.
  • Portion-Controlled: This single-serving recipe ensures you have the right portion size, helping you stay on track with your dietary goals.
  • Meal Prep Friendly: You can prepare your mug lasagna ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to a couple of days. Consider doubling or tripling the batch into multiple mugs. Just heat and eat when you’re ready!

This layered veggie mug lasagna is a game-changer for busy days when you need a wholesome meal without the hassle. Enjoy the convenience and taste of this delightful dish, perfect for anyone looking to eat healthily without spending hours in the kitchen.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED – HOW TO MAKE SPINACH RAVIOLI BAKE:

Use frozen (thawed) or refrigerated ravioli, no need to pre-cook!

Should I use frozen or refrigerated ravioli? Either type will work – I prefer the frozen ones because they are more economical. There is no need to pre-boil them, I just let them set out for about 30 minutes to thaw some.

What if I don’t like spinach? The spinach can be omitted without any substitution. I just like the fact I’m sneaking in extra veggies my family will eat. If you’d rather, you can add about 8-ounces of other quick-cooking vegetables like sliced mushrooms, frozen peas, or a little cauliflower rice.  Don’t add veggies that take a long time to cook like potatoes, or brussels sprouts, or big chunks of broccoli, etc.

Get Creative: The recipe calls for cheese ravioli, but you can use any type filling you prefer! Bottled alfredo sauce also comes in a variety of flavors – at my store I found Cajun alfredo (what I used), Poblano Alfredo, Three Cheese Alfred and more. Use whatever sounds yummy to you.

Saving Leftovers: This recipe makes about 10-12 servings. IF you have leftovers, keep covered air-tight in the fridge for up to 4 days. Or, divide into individual portions and freeze for 3-4 months.  Defrost and reheat in microwave.

TIPS FOR GOUDA MAC & CHEESE WITH BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Cheese Swap: You can swap out the Gouda for an equal amount of sharp cheddar (or really any similar cheese) for a bold change.

Don’t Like Mushrooms?: Just leave them out, no other modification needed.

Don’t Like Brussels Sprouts?: Swap with fresh broccoli florets and roast as directed for Brussel sprouts in recipe.

Pasta Shape: I prefer an elbow macaroni, penne, cavatappi or rotini for Mac and Cheese recipes. These have lots of twists and/or tunnels to catch the cheesy sauce.

Pasta Alternatives: I’ve used both traditional and gluten-free pastas to make this Brussel Sprouts Mac & Cheese, so go with your preference. It’s best when pre-cooking the noodles to take them off al dente (very slightly “to the tooth” or firm) because they will cook a second time as a mac and cheese casserole in the oven.

Seven Easy Zucchini Recipes to Put On Repeat All Summer

Does my life need yet another zucchini recipe? YES! Yes, in fact, it does! Even though this squash cultivates joke after joke in the summer about its seemingly inexhaustible, high-volume production (lock the door and turn off the porch lights), I personally can’t get enough of this good-for-me and versatile staple of the season.

Fun & Interesting Facts About Zucchini:

  • What’s to love about zucchini? Here are some reasons to add more zucchini to your life (along with a few fun facts).
  • A medium zucchini (about 200g) has just 33 calories, 6g carbs (2 of which are dietary fiber), 0g fat and 2g protein which make it a good choice for low-carb, keto and diabetic diets.
  • Zucchini is a culinary chameleon. It’s mild flavor allows it to take on the flavor profile of the dish it’s cook in.
  • Zucchini is actually a fruit, botanically speaking. That is harvested while immature from the flowering part of a zucchini plant.
  • In addition to being a great source of dietary fiber, zucchini is also rich in potassium and vitamin C.
  • The world’s largest zucchini was 69.5” long and weight 65 pounds!
  • But bigger isn’t better when it comes to zucchini squash. Zucchini experts say the best-tasting ones are small- to medium-sized. And, the darker the skin, the richer the zucchini is in nutrients.
