The BEST Low-FODMAP 30-Minute Skillet Lasagna; Gluten-free

This is my substitute for a classic Low-FODMAP Lasagna. Make it in a skillet, in about 30 minutes instead!  Easy, cheesy, and so approachable.  The BEST low-FODMAP Skillet Lasagna recipe; it suits my lifestyle perfectly. 

Try this with your favorite Low-FODMAP Marinara Sauce (For those who love homemade, I have a delish recipe).  You can also read about low-FODMAP, gluten-free pasta brands in my Low-FODMAP Grocery Shopping List.

You will note that there is no actual garlic in this recipe.  However, you will taste garlic flavor throughout!  That is the use of infused oils to add the flavor of garlic to this recipe.  These are a pantry staple (my Low-FODMAP Recipe Swaps and Substitutions shares other great tips for recipe modifications).  Since FODMAPs are not dissolved in an oil base, these are a perfect way to add flavor and richness to a recipe and keep your tummy happy.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

• 1 pound lean ground beef (I like 85/15)
• 2 teaspoons garlic-infused oil
• 1 tablespoon low-FODMAP Italian seasoning*
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 9 ounces gluten-free, low-FODMAP lasagna noodles, broken into pieces*
• 1 jar prepared low-FODMAP Marinara Sauce, or 24 ounces low-FODMAP marinara sauce*

• 1/2 cup whole milk ricotta cheese*
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan*
• 2 cups freshly shredded mozzarella cheese*

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

• Preheat your oven to broil
• In a large oven safe skillet over medium heat, brown the beef while breaking into smaller chunks, about 7-8 minutes
• While this is cooking, boil water in a large pot suitable for your lasagna noodles and cook those until tender (about 8 minutes). They may stick together, so stir this occasionally.  When cooked, strain and toss with your garlic-infused oil
• Once beef is browned, stir in the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper
• Add your marinara sauce, and allow to simmer for about 5 minutes
• Mix in basil, taste, and adjust as desired
• Stir in the cooked lasagna noodles, then drop the ricotta cheese over top with a tablespoon
• Sprinkle everything with your shredded mozzarella and Parmesan
• Allow the cheese to melt for about 2 minutes, then place in your broiler for 2-3 minutes to completely melt, and brown slightly
• Serve, garnished with fresh basil

Notes

• Although this recipe has not been lab tested, a single serving should be low-FODMAP based on the ingredients (using available FODMAP data at time of posting)
• Select a seasoning blend without added onion or garlic
• Infused oils provide flavor without FODMAPs.  Read more in my Low-FODMAP Tips and Tricks!
• Select a GF and low-FODMAP Pasta noodle and break it into smaller pieces.  I prefer to boil the pasta separately, to ensure even cooking.  Although most  of the GF pasta brands are ‘oven ready’, I have not tried to boil them directly in the sauce, and  I can’t vouch for whether the cooking time, or liquid amount would be sufficient
• I used Prego Sensitive marinara (it is FODMAP certified).  FODMAP Friendly lists a 5.2 ounce serving size for marinara, with a maximum of 13 ounces. For grocery shopping advice, see my low-FODMAP Grocery List!
• For ricotta cheese, 2 tablespoons is one low-FODMAP serving due to lactose.  If you can find lactose-free ricotta, then you may use that
• Parmesan is low in lactose, there will be a salty flavor that this provides to your dish as well. Up to 5 cups is one low-FODMAP serving according to Monash
• For mozzarella cheese, up to 5 cups is one low-FODMAP serving according to FODMAP Friendly
