300 Grams Pork Mince

1 Small Onion - chopped
1 Teaspoon Chilly Flakes
¼ Teaspoon Garlic Powder
½ Teaspoon Cumin Powder
½ Teaspoon Mexican Oregano

½ Cup Heaped Mexican Salsa
1 Cup Mixed Cheese - Brie, Sheep Cheese, Blue Cheese

Method
Preheat oven to 180°C

In a pan add the pork and chicken mince sauté till brown then add the onion and sauté for 2 minutes, then add the all seasonings and salt to taste, mix well. Cover and cook till the mince is tender. Drain out the excess fat from the pan. Keep aside to cool.
For The Sauce

Grind the roasted garlic, bell peppers, Mexican oregano and salsa in mixer jar till well blended.
In a another pan add the drained fat from the mince and the blended sauce, cook on medium flame till it comes to boil. Let is cool. Taste for salt if necessary add, I did not add any salt since the Mexican salsa had enough salt in it.
For Assembling The Lasagna

Grease an 8" x 8" a baking dish with butter well.
Add 2 -3 tablespoons of the sauce in the bottom of the baking dish. 

Keep aside ½ cup heaped of the sauce and mix the remaining to the cooked mince.

Then add a layer of egg white tortillas.

Add a layer of the mince & sauce mix.

Now sprinkle the cheese.

Again repeat the same process.
When all the mince is used up.

Add the layer of egg white tortillas, then the remaining sauce, a good amount of cheese, then a layer of slice cheddar cheese.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven for 25 minutes. After 25 minutes remove the foil and put it under the broiler for a few minutes or till the cheese is golden brown on top.

Let is cool a bit before serving. Serve with side of salad or you could also use your favorite toppings like sour cream, guacamole, avocado, etc.
This is the perfect recipe to freeze for a low carb lunch. Just portion out the leftovers and place in a freezer container. Microwave for a few minutes to reheat.

This low carb meal was so easy and comforting and sure to be a family favorite. It would be perfect for a busy weeknight meal.

Protein Sparing Tortillas With Egg White Protein Powder

I have made PSMF Egg White Wraps using fresh egg whites ( recipe will be posted soon). These Egg Wraps are make with Egg White Protein Powder (recipe source here). Can use these for the gyros or as tortillas, lasagna sheets etc! They are so quick to make and also delicious! These freeze very well. I make a big batch and freeze them. When required just defrost and use. 

Ingredients
550 grams Water Or Beef broth - I used water
80 Grams Gelatin - see notes
120 Grams Egg White Protein Powder
½ Teaspoon Pink Himalayan Salt

Method

In a blender jar add the water and sprinkle the gelatin over it and let is rest for a few minutes till it blooms for about 8 to 10 minutes. Then blend it well so that gets is mixed and well incorporated. Then add rest of the ingredients, purée until smooth and a bit frothy. Do not make the batter very frothy, it should just be mixed, even if there are lumps no worries they will smoothen when you make the wraps.

Heat a large 12 inch non-stick scan pan to medium heat. Lightly spray with olive oil spray and dab it with a paper towel. Pour 1/3 cup of batter onto the pan and tilt the pan to spread the batter all over the pan in and so it is a very thin crepe. 

Once the batter has set and is almost cooked through, gently flip the crepe (I used my fingers but be careful to not burn yourself). Cook another 30-45 seconds. Make sure the crepes do not brown at all.

Remove from pan and repeat with remaining batter.

Carbohydrates: Zero 

My Notes

Let the gelatin bloom or else it will no be incorporated well, when you make the wraps they will remain grainy.  When you eat them you can feel the grains/crunchiness as you eat and you will not like the taste of it.
