    This keto friendly salmon spinach lasagna is a hearty comfort food packed with salmon, spinach, with a creamy cheesy sauce for a healthy and flavorful keto meal.

    A salmon lasagna makes a great change if you want a break from red meat or are a low carb pescatarian. Or enjoy this on Good Friday during the Easter holidays.

    For the low carb lasagna sheets we use keto Palmini lasagna noodles as they make a great low carb option and are naturally gluten-free too. They cooked well in the cheese sauce and there were no complaints from the Chief Taster.

    CARBS IN PALMINI LASAGNA NOODLES

    For this recipe we used a whole pack of noodles which made 2 layers in a 9 x13 inch baking dish. One pack is 12 oz and has 9g net carbohydrates for the whole packet.

    Palmini noodles are made from hearts of palm and are a great low calorie and low carb pasta alternative.

    SALMON LASAGNA INGREDIENTS

    salmon lasagna ingredients
    • Spinach - we used defrosted frozen spinach but you could use fresh spinach. You need 9oz of cooked spinach.
    • Salmon fillets - Try and use skinless fillets if you can. If you only have fillets with skin, remove them and set aside for your dogs or cats (as long as it's not seasoned). I cook mine in the air fryer for a tasty dog/cat snack.

    OTHER KETO LASAGNA NOODLES

    If you don't have Palmini noodles you can use other low carb lasagna noodle replacements for this salmon lasagna recipe.

    Zucchini is a popular choice. Slice the zucchini lengthways and bake, grill or air fryer them until golden. They make a great low carb zucchini lasagna.

    Boiled or steamed cabbage leaves can be used as lasagna sheets.

    Fathead dough made with mozzarella, eggs and low carb flours are rolled out like pasta sheets.

    HOW TO MAKE SALMON SPINACH LASAGNA

    This is an easy dinner to make that can also be made ahead, then cooked when you are ready. If you make the cheese sauce as you are cooking the salmon and spinach, it saves time and your lasagna can be ready for assembly quicker.

    VARIATIONS

    Lasagna with salmon is a great keto salmon recipe that you can vary to your own taste and pantry ingredients. A few suggestions are:

    • Add ricotta cheese to the salmon spinach mixture.
    • The salmon fillets could be replaced with canned salmon.
    • Smoked salmon gives this dish another depth of flavour.
    • The cheese sauce could be made with the addition of Dijon mustard and another cheese to replace the Parmesan such as Cheddar cheese or Gouda.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    Can this be frozen?

    Once cooked and cooled you can freeze this and any left overs. We cut the lasagna into individual servings to freeze. They are placed in zip locked bags and in the freezer for at least 3 months. Defrost them in the refrigerator before reheating.

    How do you store the cooked lasagna?

    Cover the dish with clingfilm and store in the refrigerator. It will last up to 3 days in the fridge and can be reheated in the oven or microwave.

      The directions for the sauce say to "Place the cream cheese, butter and cream in a large saucepan ...", but there is no butter listed in the sauce ingredients; how much butter should there be?

        Thanks for letting me know! This was missed off but has now been added to the recipe card. It's about a cup of butter (8 ounces).
