Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium zucchini about 1/2 pound
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1.5 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 teaspoons basil dried or fresh
  • 8 ounces sliced mushrooms
  • 1.5 cups low carb marinara sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese

Instructions
 

  • Shred zucchini using a food processor or grate by hand. You should have a little over 2 cups of shredded zucchini. Lay on top of paper towels, in a flat even layer, and top with more paper towels. Press the paper towels to absorb the excess water. Let sit while you prepare the beef.
  • Turn the Instant Pot to sauté mode. Once hot, add the ground beef. Cook until most of the pink is gone, about 2 to 3 minutes. Break up with a wood spoon as it cooks. Press cancel.
  • Add the salt, pepper, basil, and minced garlic and stir.
  • Add the shredded zucchini to the ground beef and stir to combine.
  • Add the mushrooms on top then the marinara sauce. Do NOT stir.
  • Close the lid and seal the vent. Cook on low pressure for 10 minutes. Quick/manually release the steam. Press cancel.
  • Remove the lid and stir to combine. Add 1 cup of the shredded mozzarella and the ricotta cheese. Stir to combine until all liquid is absorbed and the mixture has thickened.
  • Transfer to a baking dish (any size will do) and top with remaining shredded mozzarella. Place under the broiler for 3 to 5 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Let rest 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Spiralized zucchini can work in place of teh shredded. After spiralzing your zucchini, cut into small pieces for even cooking.
