the trick to your recipes is that you don't use special ingredients you need to order online! I think your channel style is similar to josh cortis in terms of keeping the food sources simpler, except he still uses sugar and other common household ingredients to hit a wider audience. Your approach is the best CHEF
Thank you so much for your support :)
True. A lot, I mean, a LOT of these fitness cooking video, use low fat this, low fat that, zero calorie this, zero calorie that, protein pasta, protein whatever. Those thing only available for the privelege first world country citizens. Even worse, they barely use fresh ingredients, everything are either pre made or in powdered form. The perfect example is Greg Doucette, his recipes are nasty and expensive.
Josh is amazing, good humor and clear recipes. I've been doing his breakfasts a lot 🤘
Ive been doing this recipe for years! real helped in my weight loss and maintaining it. The only diference is I put even more vegetables and what I do is blend them to ground vegetables and make them with the meat. so no chunks in the lasagna.
Wonderful :)
One trick i do is substitute 30-50% of ground beef with ground chicken. Tastewise, it doesnt remove the ground beef flavor as the ground chicken kinda soaks the beefy fats and flavors. Cuts the calories a lot using this method.
Ground chicken has pretty much the same macros than 5% ground beef. Sometimes even higher. If you only have access to 80/20 I 100% agree
My ex-gf used to make lasagna with turkey mince and it was simply delicious!
I dont think ground chicken exist in Germany 😢 Only ground pork or beef
I recently found and fell in love with your channel. Inspiration for a few recipes that I’ve already tried and love. Thanks Felu for helping break the monotony of diet foods with so many tasty home cooked meals
Thank you so much :)
Felu the way you experiment with food is the exact reason why I love your channel, keep it going!
Keep these great videos coming! Very informative and presented in a genuine authentic way. 🙏
Just made this for the family and they loved it. Put in extra veggies and made enough to freeze portions for weekly work lunches.
Hi, can you find a lower calorie gyros version? That would be great because there are no recipes like that and I think people would want this too!
He might do it in the future but I guess lasagna won the poll
Of course :)
@@Felu I gotta say I really appreciate the simple recipes you throw on your channel! I think of you as the Swole Ricky Berwick and that's a compliment!
@@RhapsodiaSky A gyro is literally a greek taco lol
Just make a wrap with chicken thighs or breast, use gyros herbs for the flavor. Then add all the vegetables you like and use a high protein sauce from one of his other recipes.
Lasagna is a total comfort food for me. I only eat it occasionally, and I usually make it in disposable single serving containers so I can freeze it. I put parchment paper on top before I wrap it in foil (keeps the cheese from sticking to the foil) and all of that can go in the oven when reheating - will definitely try your tips next time I make a batch!
Absolutely! Let me know what you think, I hope you will like them :)
I use red lentils with the ground meat and my béchamel sauce is cornstarch and vegetable brought ..start with that in the bottom then lasagna sheets and you don’t need to soak the sheets before..also grated carrots and grated roots vegetables are good way to make it filling
I am so happy you made this video, this is just what I wanted: a genuine feeling lower calorie lasagna that has pasta as pasta sheets and not zucchini with tips I did not know yet! Thank you for making great content! :D
Great recipe. 👍 Keep up the good work, 100k subs are just around the corner.
Your channel is amazing. I'm always looking for recipes like the ones you publish. Thank you so much
Thank you :)
I grew up in Ohio in the U.S. and cottage cheese was a very common ingredient in lasagna. Wasn't until I grew up and left that i realized that most places use with beschamel or ricotta. Love to see it
I have been here since u had 10k subs love seeing you grow this much.
Thank you, I can't believe it myself what is actually happening
I'm so in love with this channel
You can cheat a little more by cutting the meat in half and use 100-120g soya granules for filler (better soak them in spice-boosted water before cooking, or even boil for 10-15 mins, then press a little to 'dry' it a bit). Taste and texture wise the end result is kinda the same. Boosts carbs (pasta substitution needed if it's too much), but cut fat in half, and reduce calories by a good 200 and adds fibers.
Awesome idea, thank you :)
I always make my bolognese sauce with half ground meat and half tofu. So far the Italians haven't caught on. (As in, I fed the sauce to Italians, and they liked it and didn't remark on it)
Thanks for your videos. I enjoy both, watching them and preparing food from your recipes.
Thank you!
I am always excited for your new content! Keep it up my man.
Thank you :)
This is gold!! Can’t wait to try it! Love your videos!
Thank you :)
Yesssss!!!! So much yesssss! ♡ I'm trying this tomorrow for sure!
Hope you like it :)
Just discovered your channel & it's incredible. Some of these meals will be real game changers for my diet. You deserve way more subscribers.
Thank you so much :) I really hope you will like them and put some in your rotation.
Came across this channel recently and absolutely love it! Keep up the great work :)
Thank you :)
Another great healthy, simple recipe. I love it how you give healthy great tasting meals that you can also make with regular foods found in a kitchen. Is it meant to taste kind of sweet? mine tasted sweet which kind of surprised me, the only difference was I used Celery rather than celery root. I think next time I'll also add more spices to the sauce like basil or something.
If you want to really nuke the calories from lasagna, cut a pumpkin into thin slices and roast them for 10 minutes with a little bit of oil on top, then use the pumpkin sheets as lasagna sheets. Tastes great, and for reference, there are 360 calories in 100g of lasagna sheets compared to 26 calories in 100g of pumpkin, so literally 1/14 the calories
Yeah but whats the point of making lasagna if you remove the lasagna sheets. I wanted to make a recipe that includes them, not replaces them
@@Felu Well to be fair, calorie cutting is all about finding alternative ingredients. That's a bit like saying what's the point of a wok dish with shirataki noodles instead of regular noodles.
Your recipe still isn't invalidated though, looks good, and using pumpkin slices sounds good too.
@@hejalll both good recipes and points but I think Felu tries to make things simpler and more accessible to others. Cutting a pumpkin into thin slices sounds like a pain in the ass for most of us
@@Felu I make normal lasagna way more than pumpkin lasagna, but just putting that out there for anyone who wants to cut even more calories from their dish
Welcome back, thanks. I will try it out1
Bro you have 50k subs now I remember when you had 3k about a couples months ago. Crazy! Congrats!
It's insane haha thank you
Very nice, good Tipps, thanx!
Improvement idea: You can weight everything afterwards and add cal/100g to the makro table, which makes it easily comparable
Dividing the pan up like that is such a good idea! I picked up a good lasagna tip from the hairy bikers, they make a lasagna where all the cheesy stuff is just on the top layer and so you use less and cut the calories.
Nice trick! (mushrooms)
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL! Thank you so much!
Thank you too :)
Hi
Do 2 servings fit in a 600ml Ikea 365+ bowl or should I use the 1000ml bowl?
Hey Felu! Not lasagna related but I’ve got some great ideas for salads and I was hoping you could make some videos for me. Ingredients I really want to incorporate into my diet that I can’t seem to find on Pinterest are: guava, pistachios, seasoned popcorn, pretzels, carrot tops, dandelions or dandelion pesto, shaved asparagus or any sort of fresh asparagus, herb STEMS, collard greens (instead of kale), shaved Brussels, steel cut oats (not breakfast related), chayote, yucca, or Jamaica. I have a few great recipes already like a lemon soaked shaved asparagus salad, Agua frescas, obviously smoothies, and stuff. I’d love to see what you could do with it though.
Thanks for all the suggestions. I have to research this as I rarely cook with these ingredients. I will write it on my list :)
yay lasagne won the poll😂 i sadly can’t have gelatin but will still try this recipe
It's fine, leave it out. The gelatine is not a key component
For the vegans, you can stop the video at 0:34 , that's your final product
LOL
MashaAllah super delicious😋 looks so tasty and healthy 👍🏻 love the way you prepared it. Allah bless you ❤️ jazakallahu khair for sharing recipe ❤️ good luck 👍🏻 stay connected my dear friend ❤️❤️🇮🇳
thank you :)
Looks amazing😍 can't wait to try it
Awesome :)
There are also sheats made out of beans instead of flour, making them high in fiber and protein.
Thank you, I'll meal prep this for the next week
Awesome :)
For a vegetarian (or even vegan) option for lasagna, bolognese, shepherd's pie and other ground meat based meals, I use red lentils. About 50-60g dry lentils per person with largely the same recipes. They do absorb a lot of water though, so you'll need to add more tomatoes or stock.
I like lentils, especially red lentils, because they are dirt cheap, need no prep work (I do rinse them, but it's not necessary), and you can just store them in your pantry almost infinitely for when you don't want to eat meat (or just don't want to go buy some).
Nutritionwise, you lose some protein compared to the meat (~12g in 50g lentils, ~20g in 100g ground beef), but gain some fiber (7g). Of course they contain next to no fat, but you get ~25g carbs instead, so that's to be taken in consideration. For raw calorie count you would stay at the same amount though.
Spaghetti bolognese has been one of my favourite meals since I was a child, but I honestly prefer the vegetarian version today.
I have to say, this video actually made me reconsider lasagna as a diet food. In my mind it always seemed like something I should probably avoid, since it's that addicting mix of pasta and meat, and covered in cheese to boot. "If it's gratinated with cheese, it can't be good for me". But it's actually not that terrible. I don't care for béchamel anyway and usually just made some cheese sauce, but I'll try the cottage cheese method. Seems to fit my lazy lentil approach quite well. So thank you very much for the video!
P.S.: Try replacing the celery roots with celery stalks, I find them to add quite a lot of freshness.
Love ❤ from Teronpi Christy's kitchen
Fell in love with this channel, what do you use ti calculate the macros?
Thank you :) I use My fitness Pal. It's an App
You could do your own keto lasagne sheets or buy low carb bean fluor ones. Then you could layer every other with keto lasagne sheets and next with zucchini or daikon radish.
Why would I do that?
Do you have a recommendation where to buy the cooking spray? I see in your other videos and ingredient lists that you seem to shop in german supermarkets like Aldi and Rewe, but I can't find any cooking spray there. Do you order them online? Btw love your videos! The short nature and often mentioning possible substitutions really helped me to step up my diet cooking and meal prep game
If you can't find this in grocery I would buy it on amazon. They sell it for a decent price
Road to 50k, so amazing how this went so fast😅🙌
Thank you :) It's actually crazy
Tip: when soaking lasagne sheets don't be tempted to use warm water from the tap, as it is really not suitable for consumption. Heat cold water in a kettle to the desired temp.
I think this depends where you live, right? In germany, tap water has good quality
@@kevinkomdt8812 it's a consequence of the hot water system, not the water source. They grow to be pretty filthy inside.
@@ChannelRiley In Germany, even the hot water systems are regulated to a point where everything SHOULD be safe.
i tried it and it was fantastic
nice, glad you liked it 🙂
Using cottage cheese instead of bechemel is brilliant
Just a heads up for y’all, don’t mix acidic foods with aluminum foil. The acid will dissolve the foil and you’re just gonna end up ingesting a butt load of aluminum, which can lead to a lot of health problems down the line..
Oh and by the way great content i really enjoyed a lot of your recipes, you could have chopped the carrots and mushrooms a bit finer those chunks look huge xd
Thank you but your aluminum foil statement is not really true. If a lemon could dissolve aluminum we would have bigger problems than a lasagna ;)
@@Felu its not just the lemon tomatoes are also acidic. I realized that because I wrapped my leftover lasagna in alu foil and placed it in the fridge. After a day or two when i unwrapped the lasagna to eat it had a coat of aluminum that dissolved. So i’d say that it isn’t a myth because i tested it empirically
Gonna try these !!
Hope you will like it :)
Oh das schaut wirklich super aus!!! Es gibt auch ein italienisches Gericht was ähnlich einer Lasagne ist aber Zuchini anstatt der Pasta schichten verwendet, ich komme leider gerade nicht auf den Namen.
Evtl. meinst parmigiana aber das ist mit aubergine. Danke fürs zuschauen
@@Felu Ahja genau stimmt 🙂
Sorry for misunderstanding but are those macros in the description for the full amount or per serving? I see it say 2 big servings so I’m unsure
Macros are for the entire recipe.
@@Felu thank you ☺️
Came across your channel literally a hour ago and im very impressed alot of your dishes you used regularly rice what about konjac rice for less carbs ???
Thank you and welcome :) I believe that involving carbs in your diet in moderation is better that completely removing it long term. That's why I will always involve carbs in my meals.
instead of regular ground beef you could also try ground chicken, should have about 90 calories less per 100g vs regular ground beef.
Low calorie kebab next?👀
Maybe ;)
I really like cottage cheese in lasagna. Ricotta cheese is grainy and I just don’t like. Good job.
You can also blend it to make it even creamier :)
Can you freeze it and then store it
Can you make a lower-calorie Arabic Shawarma? It often has a lot of oils, cheese, Tahini sauce, and garlic sauce. Please
Writing it on my list. Thanks for the suggestion
what electric stove is he using?
It's an induction stove from amazon. I love that thing :)
@@Felu can you please give me the name of it?
and thx for answer ❤
Lol I just had my moms lasagna last night
Going with ricotta all the way tho.
Lots of good technique here - the way you cook the mushrooms is genius. Have you ever tried mixing a water + baking soda solution into the ground beef? I hear it's an amazing trick to keeping low-fat beef moist, but I've never tried it.
Never tried with ground beef but with stir fry beef. I showed what happened in my beef and broccoli video 😊
Would you care to make a Shawarma recipe?
will write that on my list 🙂
@@Felu looking forward to it!
I wouldn't really call this lasagna but i'm sure it has a lot less calories.
Why not
Looks amazing but on a 1.600kcal cut so it won't happen anytime soon lol
coach greg
I guess if carbs, protein, and vegetables are all you need then sure... it's "healthy-ish". The problem usually comes from portion size, where "healthy" meals become unhealthy.
I normally like your recipes, but this one just doesn´t look very appetizing. Lasagna kinda needs all those layers, and the browned, crispy, cheesy bechamel on top. The sauce is great - awesome idea with the gelatine, i will try to add that next time. But i think it would have been better served simply with cooked pasta.
Kedy prejde k veci hra sa normálne
Nice videos. To nitpick, you seem to define healthy as low calories. Calories arnt inherently unhealthy. Neither are carbs or fat for that matter.
fat free cheese
I hate mushrooms ...
Leave them out, i made this with and without mushrooms. both works :)
How substitute yucky mushrooms? 🤭
Leave them out
@@Felu oh? But quantity of mushrooms is pretty high so that doesn't affect texture? At least it affects how filling its? 😬
This looks nice but I wouldn't call it Lasagne, it is its own thing.
As long "its own thing" tastes great I'm fine :)
@@Felu Absolutely, if it tastes good then that is what really matters. I make something similar to this using crepes instead of sheets of pasta.
Bist du Deutscher? 😅
Ja ich wohne in stuttgart
@@Felu ah cool haha
I wouldn't say it's healthy if it has so much carbohydrate and so little fat
Its's fine, you can believe whatever you want. Nobody is gonna stop you ;)
Carbs and healthy aren't mutually exclusive
this ain't it
