You’re amazing, look at the Pulled Pork Lasagne dishes you’ve made…
For the full list of ingredients and comprehensive instructions, please see the recipe card below. Before you scroll, there’s important stuff in the blurb!
If this Pulled Pork Lasagne doesn’t set your mouth watering, we don’t know what will! The recipe was inspired by a clever member of the Pinch of Nom community who used some leftovers from our Pulled Pork recipe to make a lasagne. How delicious does that sound?
We had to give it a try ourselves, although we’ve switched the pork for a slow-cooked gammon joint, to keep the calories down as much as possible. If you’d prefer, you can absolutely make this lasagne using the Pulled Pork instead!
Whichever you choose, we can guarantee that the end result will be so satisfying. Layer the BBQ-seasoned meat with our slimming-friendly white sauce and lasagne sheets, then top the whole thing with cheese and bake it until the topping is golden brown and crispy.
This recipe can also be made in your slow cooker or in your Instant Pot, so it’s ready on a schedule that fits into your busy day.
What diets is this Pulled Pork Lasagne suitable for?

NHS guidelines suggest men should aim for 2,500 calories per day to maintain a healthy body weight, and women require around 2000 calories.

Step 1
Soak the gammon joint in water for a few hours or overnight to remove the excess salt. This step is really important to prevent the finished lasagne ending up too salty!
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 170ºC. Mix the pepper with the BBQ seasoning and rub it all over the gammon joint. Spray a frying pan with low-calorie cooking spray. Brown the gammon on all sides, remove from the pan and leave to one side.
Step 3
Add the onions and cook until soft. Transfer the gammon and onions into a casserole dish and pour in the boiling water and Worcestershire sauce. Crumble in the stock cube and give it a stir.
Step 4
Cover with a lid and cook in the oven for 3 hours.
Step 5
While the gammon joint is cooking, make the BBQ sauce. Spray a large frying pan with low-calorie cooking spray and cook the onions and garlic until the onions are soft.
Step 6
Add the tomato puree, chopped tomatoes and passata and simmer for 4 minutes. Add in the BBQ seasoning, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, sweetener and chipotle paste. Give the sauce a good stir and simmer for 5 minutes until thickened. Leave to one side while the gammon cooks.
Step 7
Remove the gammon from the oven and shred with two forks. Add to the BBQ sauce and stir until completely coated with the sauce.
Step 8
Increase the oven temperature to 200ºC. Mix the yoghurt and eggs until smooth and season with salt and pepper.
Step 9
Spread a layer of the pulled pork mixture into the bottom of an ovenproof dish, then add a layer of lasagne sheets, then some of the white sauce. Repeat with a further layer of pulled pork, lasagne and the rest of the sauce.
Step 10
Sprinkle the top with the Cheddar cheese and pop in the oven for 30 minutes, until the top of the lasagne is golden brown. Serve with your choice of accompaniment.
