Low GI and Gluten-Free Spinach & Beef Lasagna

Recipe taken from the website https://zerosucreetigbas.fr/lasagnes-ig-bas-et-sans-gluten-epinard-boeuf/ My family loved this recipe ???? For a really low GI, I found lasagna noodles made from yellow lentils (see at the end of the page). They were very good and perfect. My personal touch: 1 layer with spinach (I love it and it adds some vegetables), a little sweet potato in the bolognese sauce to add a melt-in-your-mouth texture.
